Talk about the world of mortals in detail
Chapter 801 Overestimating One’s Own Abilities
Near noon, Wu Sunheng was walking alone on the street and came to a relatively less busy street. He looked around and finally arrived in front of an inn.
“Suping Inn.”
Wu Sunheng looked at the inn sign and murmured, then lowered his head and looked inside the inn. The shopkeeper was flipping the abacus beads. There were several tables of guests eating in the hall, and two waiters, one large and one small, were busy.
Wu Sunheng calmed down and walked into the inn. The waiter, who was obviously still a child, ran over with a smile on his face.
"Sir, would you like to eat or stay in a hotel?"
The shopkeeper also raised his head and looked at the visitor. The half-armed robe he was wearing seemed to be that of a mage, and it was very different from the full-body robes that ordinary mages liked to wear.
Wu Sunheng glanced at Ke Xiaofa, looked around the hall and upstairs, and then looked at the counter.
"Shopkeeper, I'm here to see Mr. Zheng Yiming."
Wu Sunheng chose to get straight to the point. The shopkeeper and Ke Xiaofa were slightly startled.
"Does this guest officer know Mr. Zheng?"
When the shopkeeper asked this, Wu Sunheng knew that Zheng Yiming must be here, and he smiled.
"Although I haven't met him, I know that he has outstanding knowledge. I heard that he might be here and come over for a visit. Is it convenient?"
"Oh, Mr. Zheng is copying books in the back. Xiaofa, go and ask him if it is convenient for him to see the guest. Please wait here for this guest."
Zheng Yiming was modest and polite, and had no grudges with anyone. The shopkeeper didn't think too much about it. Ke Xiaofa said "Okay" and ran to the back. Wu Sunheng frowned slightly, but hesitated and didn't rush. Follow.
Fortunately, the child ran back after a while.
"This guest, Mr. Zheng asked you to come over."
Wu Sunheng smiled, bowed his hands to the shopkeeper, glanced at some curious diners in the hall, and then followed the child to the back hall of the inn.
Passing through the kitchen and walking to the corner of the backyard, Wu Sunheng was slightly surprised. Ke Xiaofa took him to the woodshed. Because the weather had been hot for a few days recently, the doors and windows of the woodshed were open.
Wusunheng recited the mantra silently, and then entered the woodshed with the children beside him, and saw a scholar writing at a low table there.
The weather in late autumn was changeable. It had been cool before, but today it was as hot as a stove. The scholar seemed to be sitting in a pile of firewood, his clothes were untied, and the clothes around his neck and shoulders were wet with sweat, but it didn't affect him at all. The movement of Confucian writing.
When Wu Sunheng walked over, he stepped on some dead branches on the ground, but the scholar did not stop.
Wu Sunheng subconsciously glanced at the writing on the table. The scholar's handwriting was vigorous and powerful, yet still flowing. It was written: Maintain righteousness with a righteous heart, protect justice with righteousness, uphold the country and respect the people, then the world will be settled.
Zheng Yiming finished copying the complete paragraph, and then raised his head to look at the person. When he met his eyes, Wu Sunheng was slightly stunned, as if the other person's face seemed brighter than ordinary people at this moment.
Confucianism is righteous and has a clear mind!
This is not evil!
Wu Sunheng understood immediately that the scholar in front of him might be a real talent. He might not be able to support the stability of the country, but at least he had a righteous heart and a true Confucian spirit!
"This mage? Zheng doesn't know you. I wonder why you are looking for me?"
Zheng Yiming looked at the visitor curiously. His eyes made people like Wu Sunheng feel a little embarrassed, because the Wang family he helped got the imperial examination certificate by exchanging the test papers of the person in front of him.
"Um, I, Wu Sunheng, have learned some Taoism in the mountains. When I passed by this place, I sensed some evil spirits, so I came here to have a look!"
Ke Xiaofa stood aside and immediately exposed the other party's lies.
"He is a liar! When he entered the inn, he said he wanted to see Mr. Zheng!"
Wu Sunheng felt even more embarrassed, but fortunately his face was thicker than a tortoise shell, and his face did not change at all. He glanced at the child next to him and nodded.
"What this little brother said is true. In fact, I figured that there might be monsters or ghosts around Mr. Zheng, so I came here to help you! Did Mr. Zheng encounter any strange things before coming to Pingzhou or in Pingzhou? "
Wu Sunheng's mentality has changed now. Although the Wang family invited him here and he really wants to protect them, Zheng Yiming in front of him is more important.
This Mr. Zheng is probably entangled by a monster!
This Confucian scholar has a righteous heart and a talented person, and his knowledge is also outstanding. This is very able to attract some evil spirits with beautiful mountains and fields and even some climate. It may seem like it will give him some help, but in fact it will suck all his energy!
The process may be a bit complicated, but Wu Sunheng has already made a judgment in his mind about the current situation, and he still wants to get rid of the evildoer as he thought before!
Of course Zheng Yiming didn't know the mental activities of the mage in front of him, but when the other party asked him, he thought for a moment and shook his head before answering.
"Strange things? Zheng has not encountered any strange things. He studied here peacefully and took the imperial examination. Although he failed the exam, he still lived here temporarily to make some money copying books, and he could also subsidize his family for reference again in the future."
"And my medicine was bought with the help of Mr. Zheng and the shopkeeper!"
Ke Xiaofa couldn't help but say this, and Wu Sunheng on the side nodded slightly. He was a Confucian scholar who was upright and kind-hearted, but he also had a smile on his face.
"Sometimes strange things are not what you think. It may be inexplicable good luck, or it may be an unusually beautiful woman. Especially the latter, it will definitely be impressive."
Wu Sunheng was staring at Zheng Yiming when he said this. He saw that the other party was obviously stunned for a moment, as if he was lost in thought.
Indeed, Zheng Yiming subconsciously thought of Yu Xinmei whom he had met before. This fairy-like girl was unforgettable after seeing her, but so much time has passed, and he has walked through many places in Pingzhou City, but he has never seen her again.
Wu Sunheng's eyes lit up slightly.
"Mr. Zheng, did you think of something?"
Zheng Yiming subconsciously shook his head to deny it.
"No, I still didn't think of anything unusual!"
That girl was beautiful, kind and generous, how could she be a demon.
Wu Sunheng smiled and didn't say much. Some things are often not immediately persuasive. He took a pendant from his neck and handed it to Zheng Yiming.
"Mr. Zheng, you can wear this pendant and don't take it off when taking a bath. It will keep you safe and any demons can't get close to you."
Zheng Yiming subconsciously took it and took a closer look. It turned out to be a small sword more than an inch long.
"Remember, you can't take it off while wearing it. Mr. Zheng can try to see if the rope is suitable and whether it can be worn." Zheng Yiming saw that the mage in front of him was serious. He was hesitating whether to wear the pendant on his neck to try it out, but Wusun Heng had already made a decision for him and directly took the pendant and put it on his neck. "Okay, it's very suitable. I wish Mr. Zheng a good score soon. I will get rid of the evil spirits as soon as possible. If you get into trouble, I will also show up to protect you!" Zheng Yiming grinned. He didn't know this mage. He was a little confused since he came in. He spoke to him politely. He shook his head when he heard this. "Good score, ha ha ha, I hope so, but Zheng is upright and has nothing to fear. I won't bother you, mage. I'll give it back to you." After the voice fell, Zheng Yiming reached out to take off the small sword pendant, but found that he couldn't take it off after putting it on easily just now. "What's going on? Why can't I take it off? Master, what have you done?"
"Hahahaha, Mr. Zheng, don't worry, just wear it!"
Wusun Heng smiled and turned away. Zheng Yiming was obviously bewitched by the evil spirit, and he was too lazy to say more now.
"Hey, stop, take this thing off!"
Zheng Yiming stood up and chased him out, and Ke Xiaofa followed him. However, when they chased him to the lobby of the inn, they still didn't find the magician, and the shopkeeper said he didn't see him.
Then the knife and scissors were used in turn, but they couldn't cut the rope.
After Wusun Heng came out of Suping Inn, he walked on the streets in the city. He still had a plan for how to get rid of the evil spirit, but he stopped walking.
At this moment, Wusun Heng's face became a little solemn. He subconsciously looked up at the sky. It was noon. Today was cloudless again, the sun was in the sky, and the firepower of the sun was strong.
The scorching sun at noon in autumn made the streets empty, but a woman in white stood there a dozen steps away.
Wusun Heng's heart skipped a beat. This was not the evening when the sky was about to get dark. The evildoers were even more powerful than he had imagined!
Yu Xinmei stood on the street and looked at the mage coldly. She had already tried to report to the capital of Gui State. She could have waited for the officials from the court who were investigating the cheating in the imperial examination to come to Pingzhou, but she didn't expect that this person would find Zheng Yiming directly.
Yu Xinmei didn't have a good face, but she still tried to suppress her anger.
"My fellow Taoist, you are eager to subdue the demon but don't look at the right and wrong, helping the evil and harming the good. What's the reason?"
"My fellow Taoist? Humph! I just help people and destroy the evil. A good person like Zheng Yiming can't let you, the evildoer, absorb his Yuan Yang and harm his fate!"
From Wusun Heng's perspective, he felt that he had seen through the nature of the evil, because Wang Shicai had his Yuan Qi taken away.
Yu Xinmei stared at the mage coldly.
"If you want to help good people, you shouldn't help the Wang family. I have never harmed Mr. Zheng. I think you also know that the Wang family changed his imperial examination papers. You are harming Mr. Zheng by helping the Wang family. You are the evildoer!" Wusun Heng was already brewing magic in secret, but he didn't want to lose the upper hand. "The sins of the Wang family have their own cause and effect. The chivalrous men in the world, the court officials, and even the judges of the underworld a hundred years later will make a decision. It is not your turn to cross the line. What you say is just a lie. It can deceive mortals but not me!" Yu Xinmei sneered. "Then the reason doesn't make sense?" "Reason is for people, not for monsters!" After Wusun Heng finished speaking, the two sides fell into silence. There were no pedestrians on the street at this time. Except for someone looking from afar at the intersection, there was only a cat on the roof of one side looking seriously. The next moment, the two moved at the same time. "Demon, die--" "I'm afraid you don't have the ability!"
Wusun Heng stepped forward in an instant, and Yu Xinmei did not give in at all. Her figure seemed to slide on the stone pavement of the street, and she had already approached in an instant.
"Zheng--"
At this moment, the long sword was unsheathed and held in Wu Sun Heng's hand, and he chopped it directly towards Yu Xinmei, but the latter did not dodge.
"Dang~~~"
The mage held the sword, and the woman just pinched the sword finger with her right hand. The scallion-white fingers collided with the sharp sword, and the long sword was directly broken into two pieces.
Wusun Heng's pupils dilated slightly and then suddenly shrank. He swept his other hand forward, and suddenly more than a dozen talismans flew out, and Yu Xinmei's body was red.
"Boom."
Surrounded by fire, the flames seemed to suddenly engulf half of the street. At the same moment, Wu Sunheng had already stepped to the rear in an instant, and the mana in his body condensed into a thread and opened his mouth in an instant.
"Shua~"
A ray of white light flew out of Wusun Heng's mouth as fast as thunder.
"Bang"
The strong impact caused by the white light and the air flow brought out even extinguished the flames in an instant, and Yu Xinmei slid back six or seven steps.
At this moment, Wu Sunheng was sweating heavily on his forehead, and the white-clothed demon girl was holding a small silver sword between two fingers of her right hand.
The small sword seemed to be still struggling fiercely in the woman's hand, but it could not break free from the woman's seemingly slender and white fingers.
"Is this your ultimate move? You are not a mortal warlock!"
"You are no ordinary monster."
Yu Xinmei smiled.
"Did I say I was?"
After the words fell, Yu Xinmei's demonic power, which was even more powerful than before, emerged, and then with a backhand flick, the small sword in her hand flew towards Wusun Heng.
With a muffled groan, the small sword directly pierced Wu Sunheng's chest and burst out from behind. When it fell to the ground with a "ding", the small sword had broken.
"Uh-huh. Huh. Monster, monster."
Unable to hold on, Wu Sunheng fell to his knees, blood continuously overflowing from his chest, as if all the strength in his body was leaving.
Yu Xinmei had already walked to Wu Sunheng, who was kneeling on the ground. When she was about to pass by him, she stopped and looked sideways at him.
"Hmph, you are not overestimating your own abilities. I won't kill you, but I will also teach you a lesson, telling you not to call people evil every time you meet them!"
After saying this, Yu Xinmei left.
In front of and behind the street, some passers-by saw fire and some noises, but few paid attention immediately. Only then did some people come over, and all they saw was the mage lying in a pool of blood.

PS: The state and biological clock are indeed a little bad. That’s it for today. I want to go to bed early. I said before that I will make up for the missed time in three updates after I recover. I will start three updates tomorrow.
