New White Snake Asking Immortals

The setting sun was gradually swallowed up by darkness.

Every household in the bustling city lights candles, but in the bustling center there is darkness, which is incompatible with the surrounding noise. There is no light in the luxurious mansion that was brightly lit a few days ago. The house is in a mess, as if it has been dug up. Ransacked.

The prosperity of the past has passed like clouds, and things in the world are unpredictable, just as the old saying goes, misfortunes and fortunes are unpredictable.

There is an old tree next to the lotus pond in the back garden. Three or four people can hug it. The thick trunk grows crookedly, half covering the flowers and half covering the pond. Children often climb and step on the tree bark until it becomes smooth. There are also many inscriptions with written words hanging on the branches. Bamboo pieces, occasionally blown by the wind, collide and cause movement.

The lightless pavilion was dark, and the roof with missing corners was strangely shaped, like a giant beast dormant at night.

The dim moonlight shines into the house, and there are two bright moons in the lotus pond and the sky.

Suddenly, the old tree leaning toward the water made a sound of tearing wood, and the trunk slowly cracked, revealing the person wrapped in the tree. The faint green breath of life was taken back by the old tree. With the help of the moonlight, one could vaguely see that it was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl. Beautiful, wearing clothes that only rich families can afford.

The tears on the girl's face have long dried up, her brows are furrowed as if she is having a nightmare, and she occasionally trembles.

There was a faint old sigh in the silent courtyard.

The gentle breeze made the leaves rustle, and the girl slowly opened her eyes, her eyes blank as if she was still distinguishing between dreams and reality.

When he regained consciousness, he looked frightened and covered his mouth with his hands for fear of making any sound.

Excessive fear caused her heart to beat faster and her nostrils to breathe rapidly. Any dark shadow or sound outside would make her nervous. The tragic scenes before falling asleep seemed to be still in front of her eyes. It took a long time to calm down her nervousness and fear. She looked at the darkness outside and was at a loss.

I remember how the chaos and noise in the house turned into a dark and quiet night in the blink of an eye, and how long I slept...

After waiting for a while to make sure there was no one outside, he climbed out of the hollow tree very carefully.

Just as I stood firm, the creaking trunks of the old trees behind me slowly closed.

In my ears, I could faintly hear the voice of Ruoyouruowu, whose voice was as old as an old man's.

"Put down your hatred and live a good life, don't take revenge..."

The girl was at a loss, remembering the scene where she saw the tragic death of her family before she fell asleep. The fear gradually receded, and the expression on her face turned into gritted teeth.

"Everyone who destroyed my family deserves death!"

"well……"

Hearing this, the old voice sighed helplessly and said no more.

Suddenly, something emitted a fiery red light around the girl's waist. It was a round jade pendant, slightly smaller than a palm, with a red rope hanging from it. The girl curiously picked up the jade pendant and raised it to her eyes for a closer look.

"Phoenix?"

The jade pendant was given to her by her father in the chaos. At that time, the house was invaded and there were swords and swords everywhere. After a few words of hasty instructions, she was pushed into the hollow tree and fell asleep. When she woke up, she fell asleep like this.

The circular phoenix pattern is exactly the same as the family imprint. It feels inexplicably warm when held in the hand, which can dispel fear and stabilize the mood.

Turn the jade pendant over and look at the other side. There is no difference between the two sides. The workmanship is exquisite and extraordinary.

The girl held the jade pendant in both hands and recalled her father's words.

"Take the jade pendant back to the mountain behind the family ancestral hall and ask to see the gods! Tell the gods that there is something wrong with Princess Yu! Ask the gods to save everyone in the family..."

Holding the jade pendant tightly, the girl vowed to rescue her parents and everyone in the family.

"Dad, I will definitely save you and mother! I also want to ask Princess Yu why she wants to harm us!"

She must save everyone. She grew up in a family and knew very well what it means for her family to fall. The fate of her people will be very tragic. Falling from the high clouds into the mud and losing the wealth accumulated by her ancestors for generations is only a trivial matter. Serious The only thing is that he fell down the class from then on.

The men of the family faced beheading, imprisonment, or exile for thousands of miles, while the women suffered misery whether they were exiled or sold into a brothel.

From then on, he became a low-class commoner and could never return to the upper class.

They sweat hard for a mouthful of food every day, or are driven to work hard to snatch resources for the princes and nobles.

It is more difficult to reach the upper level again than to reach the sky.

As time goes by, the descendants gradually become confused and numb, and are completely reduced to civilians, with no future...

She must return to the ancestral hall of her old house and invite the gods as her father asked. This is the family's only hope, and the heavy burden falls entirely on the girl's thin shoulders.

He raised his arms and wiped his tears with his sleeves, bent down to the old tree to thank him, turned around and walked into the darkness without looking back.

The old trees behind Ruo You Ruo Wu sighed helplessly.

"well……"

The girl left the mansion through a secret passage and walked around the civilian area at night. Perhaps the phoenix jade pendant on her body could bring some kind of luck. There were no dangers along the way. She knocked on the door of an ordinary house. We were welcomed into the house by an elderly couple.

Early the next morning, the old couple drove a donkey cart and took the girl dressed as an ordinary person out of the city.

The old donkey pulled the slow donkey cart, and the badly worn wheels squeaked. The girl moved from time to time, and occasionally scratched her neck and rubbed her feet. How could a rich person have ever ridden in such a broken donkey cart? It was hard and bumpy, and her body The coarse clothes made my skin hurt, especially the back of my neck, which may have been abraded.

There were no soft carriages or aromatherapy, and the stench of the streets made the girl unable to open her eyes.

The streets were noisy and noisy, and everyone was talking about the collapse of the big clan.

The notice wall was covered with official documents from the imperial court, and the heads of the family members who tried to resist were hung on poles on the roadside. The old lady kindly reminded her not to look up. Unexpectedly, the more she spoke, the more curious she became. She looked up and spit out the whole grains she had eaten in the morning, and the filth followed. The wheel rolled and vomited all the way.

The girl tried hard not to cry, pinching herself hard to distract from the pain.

If the behavior is abnormal, it is easy to be discovered quickly.

The whole city was still searching for any fish that had slipped through the net. There were catchers and officers and soldiers everywhere, perhaps protected by the phoenix jade pendants. The government catchers passed by the donkey cart again and again without any suspicion.

But the girl still couldn't forget the head with disheveled hair on the pole, appearing in front of her eyes again and again. In a trance, she seemed to see her parents' heads hanging on the pole...

Fortunately, the old couple tried their best to take good care of her and accompanied the haggard girl out of the city.

The wind and sun scorched the rainforest, and the three days of journey made the three people and one donkey exhausted.

The old car was refinished several times.

Ordinary old donkeys, dilapidated donkey carts, and ordinary old people. In this tense period when any disturbance would attract officers and soldiers, there were no strongmen and bandits who did not open their eyes and cause trouble. They arrived at the ancestral land of the girl's family safely.

This place was also closed by officers and soldiers, the old ancestral hall collapsed, and the old house that was once inaccessible to outsiders was occupied by officers and soldiers.

The girl gritted her teeth and watched the peasants dig.

The cart took away carts full of boxes, silks, gold, silver and jewelry from the clan. This was just the tip of the iceberg of the family's wealth.

There is no one on the hill behind the ancestral hall. The hill is not high, but it is covered with some kind of flowering tree with red leaves.

After thanking the two old men, the girl got into the grass and secretly climbed the mountain...
