On how to play HE

It was an old courtyard house with black tiles and white walls, located on an unknown hill.

In the center of the courtyard is a simple fence made of wooden piles, on which are climbed a few delicate and plain white morning glories.

In the middle of the fence, there grows an ancient tree with a graceful posture and twists and turns, but its age cannot be discerned at all.

Gentle sunlight particles sieve from the branches and leaves, and fall on the young man under the tree who is quietly looking at the unfinished pottery embryo on the pottery machine.

The young man named He Muze has a narrow nose, thin lips, and black and soft hair that hangs down to his ears.Although he was wearing a pair of thick black-rimmed glasses, he didn't look dull and dull, but instead gave off a somewhat quiet and elegant temperament.

"The mouth of the cup... seems a little crooked?"

He muttered something softly, then dipped his hands in water, turned the turntable of the machine again, and carefully corrected the shape of the pottery embryo that was spinning rapidly on the turntable with his slender white fingers.

"It's really kind of you to be free." The person who spoke was his elder brother He Tianluo, who was different from his younger brother's not so outstanding appearance. Distinguished by peers do not have the power and influence.He looked at He Muze, who was working hard on his own, and frowned in displeasure, "You failed three subjects in the mid-term exam, right? The monthly exam is about to start, what are you going to do? The monthly exam score, but It will be counted in the placement assessment of the second year of high school, you haven't heard of it, have you?"

The person who was concentrating on sculpting pottery didn't look up at him, and his tone was so indifferent that he didn't seem to be talking about his own affairs at all: "Anyway, my brain is not as good as my brother's, so let it be."

"I really don't know what else you can care about." He Tianluo snorted and looked away, his eyes fell on a low table next to He Muze, on which a woodcarved rabbit was lifelike.Finally, she couldn't help raising her eyebrows: "Gu Ningning's birthday is coming soon, I heard that she likes rabbits very much?"

He Muze paused, and the pottery embryo in his hand collapsed all of a sudden, He Muze lowered his head and pushed his glasses: "I don't think so...why do you mention Sister Ningning?"

He Tianluo was taken aback when he saw this, and then burst out laughing: "Hahahahaha... You guys are still not frank as always."

Seeing that He Muze remained silent, He Tianluo slightly suppressed the smile on his face: "I won't mention you for preparing a birthday present for Gu Ningning, but you can do less or less of these handicrafts. No matter what you promise I don’t admit it, you have the blood of our monster extermination all the time. Whether you like it or not, as long as those ordinary earthenware are in your hands, they will have spiritual power, which will not dissipate in a short time. And the artifacts with spiritual power , will be coveted by 'those things'."

"Although I understand what you said. But..." He Muze completely put down the irretrievable pottery embryo in his hand, helped the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said slowly, "If you want to say what I am good at, you can That's all. I'm counting on this to support myself in the future."

He Tianluo was almost annoyed by him: "Then what about your own safety? Don't you think about the danger of doing this at all?" He clenched his teeth desperately, so as to stop himself from punching himself, who is so dangerous no matter how you look at it. On the face of the very weak brother, "Are you in danger, do you have the ability to protect yourself?"

Before he could finish his sentence, a few monsters with narrow cheekbones and narrow eyes suddenly jumped in from outside the courtyard wall.All of them were full of fangs. After erecting their muscular legs, they were as tall as half a person, and surrounded He Muze in an organized semicircle.

He sighed, and took out a cluster of slender silver needles from the special long pocket on his trouser legs almost at the same time as they jumped towards the young man with glasses. The special tool for eliminating demons is derived from the three-edged needle in acupuncture.

He poured some spiritual power into the three-edged needles through his fingertips, and threw the silver needles into the air without looking at them.

In the next second, those monsters who jumped into the air screamed and fell to the ground, and then disappeared into black smoke.

From the time those monsters jumped into the courtyard wall to when they were dealt with, the whole process took less than five seconds.

During this process, He Muze didn't even show any surprise.At the end, he showed a little smile and looked at the person who had just done his best to protect him, his eyes were calm and clear as if nothing had happened just now: "Although I am afraid of monsters, it is true, but as long as it is not a big monster with a strong evil spirit, As long as I am not on the front line of eliminating demons, but stay around where my brother can protect me, I will have nothing to fear.——Because you see, these little demons that can be attracted by my artifacts are not all easily eliminated by you? As for those A big monster with all-powerful abilities won't take a liking to such an artifact with meager spiritual power."

"You guy..." He Tianluo gritted his teeth, hesitated to speak, and finally sighed resignedly: "Okay then, let's go back to the original topic—tell me that you at least know when the monthly exam is!"

He Muze held his glasses and thought for a moment: "Next Monday?"

"Very good, at least you still remember...——That's not right! Isn't today Saturday? The placement test! The thing that most determines your fate before the college entrance examination——"

"Brother, you sometimes talk like a mother." He Muze glanced at He Tianluo and smiled slightly, "This may indeed determine my fate, what kind of class I will study until I graduate from high school, and even what I will study in the future But that’s all. Just like the breakfast you cook, whether it’s steamed bun porridge, soy milk fritters, or sandwiches and fried eggs, I can accept it, it’s no different.”

He Tianluo wanted to say something, but he raised his hand to stop him, and just continued with a smile: "I know that I am a descendant of the demon-killing lineage of the family, and I don't have the ability to eliminate demons. Long—our great-grandfather will cut off all my financial security. So brother, you have been worrying about my future life. But the problem is, unlike my brother who can easily get the first grade, I also don’t Good at reading."

"Don't take it for granted!" Tian Luo was already thinking distortedly at this moment, it might be good to commit domestic violence once in a while.Seeing his infuriating indifference, he suddenly changed his tone, "What about Gu Ningning? Don't you want to be in the same class as her?"

He Muze lowered his head and pushed his glasses: "Why did you mention her again?"

"Stinky boy still pretending to be stupid?" He Tianluo narrowed his eyes when he noticed his red-hot ears, "We have an appointment to hold a tutoring session at her home at 02:30 in the afternoon, will you come?"

"……Not coming."

"Hey, isn't it? Thanks to me, I asked her to pick some suitable ones for you from her mountain of notes, which is probably the number one in the world. If you can't say it at this time, then she is preparing for nothing. I don't know if she will have something in her heart." How bad is it?"

"……elder brother."

"Ok?"

"...I'll just go." He Muze spoke rather weakly.

"Well, that's right." He Tianluo showed a satisfied smile.

After the security of the community confirmed by phone, the two brothers of the He family were released.

It was a very livable community with extremely high vegetation coverage and complete supporting facilities.

The two didn't look much, and went directly to the building where Gu Ningning's house was located.

In front of the anti-theft door at the entrance of the building, there is a device that can communicate with the owner.

He Tianluo and the others are currently talking to Gu Ningning who is on the 3rd floor.

"Please wait a moment...Okay, I've already unlocked the door below for you, just pull it open." Gu Ningning's sweet and smiling voice sounded from the device, "Remember it's room 305 You two are big boys, so I won't go downstairs to pick you up. Then, see you later!" There was a slight "crack" sound of hanging up from the device.

The two took the elevator to the third floor. As soon as the elevator door opened, He Muze saw a few small black bugs flying towards him.He Muze waved his hands away, but one of them flew into He Muze's eyes from the side of the glasses.

He Muze immediately took a step back with a scream.Feeling cold all over, he stretched out his hand to rub it, trying to get the bug out of his eyes.

"What's wrong?" He Tianluo looked at it strangely.

"A bug... got into the eye." He Muze frowned slightly.

"Bug? Where did the bug come from?" He Tianluo was taken aback.As a professional demon extermination, his eyesight and vigilance are far higher than ordinary people.He and Mu Ze are so close, there is no reason for him not seeing the insects flying over.

"As soon as the elevator door opened, a few small black bugs flew in from the outside. Before I could see clearly, one of them went straight into my eyes..." He Muze still frowned tightly, covering his eyes in pain.

"Why didn't I see any of them?" Frowning slightly, He Tianluo carefully pulled He Muze, who was rubbing his eyes and making it difficult to see the way, out of the elevator.Pulled to a light that was on in the corridor, then grabbed the hand that was rubbing his eyes happily, and approached him, "Don't rub it blindly. Open your eyes, let me see."

He Muze cautiously opened his eyes.

He Tianluo looked carefully for a long time, but saw nothing, so he frowned even deeper: "Now, follow my instructions and look up."

He Muze followed Tian Luo's instructions and looked up.The lower half of the eyeball is clean and nothing is there.

After that, he repeatedly turned his eyeballs several times according to He Tianluo's instructions, until He Muze's eyeballs turned to the left, and He Tianluo finally saw a small black dot in the far right corner of his right eye.

It's like a faint smear of ink on white paper.

It's evil spirit.

He Tianluo's expression instantly became serious.

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head to look at his younger brother: "Mu Ze, you should go back today."

"Ah?" This endless sentence made He Muze a little confused.

"What you see...maybe not the bugs, but the evil spirit escaping from the monster. But there is no monster nearby. It should be a little far away, drifting from far away. Since you are too familiar with the monster Only those who are too sensitive can catch them with their vision. In other words, those who can not see their shape and see their monsters first should not be easy to deal with monsters..." He Tianluo frowned and thought, "I will find them for you at Ningning's place. It's a good excuse, you go back first."

"Evil spirit?" He Muze's eyes widened, "But doesn't sister Ning Ning live on this floor? And—"

He pointed to room 305 on the side of the elevator: "Those little bugs came from that direction. I'm afraid..."

Before he finished speaking, He Tianluo already knew what he wanted to express: "You can see the direction of the flow of demon energy, which is already a great help. Next, you will have your brother, the genuine monster exterminator, Gu Ningning, you can rest assured But you, since you have chosen not to live in this world as a demon extermination, don't let yourself get involved in these dangers and troubles."

"But," He Muze was a little hesitant, "Is it causing trouble for people to turn back after arriving here?"

He Tianluo took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart: "Why are you always so stubborn in this kind of place?"

However, before He Muze could answer, the door of Room 305 in front of them suddenly opened.

Behind the door was a high school girl with an exquisite figure, her normally loose long hair was tied behind her head, and she was wearing a very homely lemon yellow cotton suspender dress.

She glanced at the two people at the door in some astonishment, and then her innocent and pretty face immediately filled with a gentle smile: "I also said why you are so slow, did you go to the wrong floor, and you all arrived in the end."

There was a long silence.

Sighing silently in his heart, He Tianluo's brain took the lead to get on the line, turned around and waved at the other party with a smile: "Hey, Ningning! I brought my brother to disturb you!"

"Ning, hello, sister Ning Ning." He Muze greeted in a low voice.With sharp eyes, he saw around Gu Ningning's body and behind him, there were also groups of black bugs here and there.

"What are you bothering me about? I'm glad you can come. It's too late. By the way, don't stand at the door, come in." Gu Ningning quickly smiled and led the two into the room, "You don't need to change your shoes, Just wear your own shoes, it’s okay. Ah, the door doesn’t need to be closed, a friend of mine will come later.”

"Oh? I don't know if it's a friend of the same sex or a friend of the opposite sex?" He Tianluo smiled narrowly.

Blinking her eyes blankly, Gu Ningning's face turned red all of a sudden: "...Of course they are friends of the same sex! They are in the same grade as us, and have a good relationship with me. You just said that you want to bring Mu Ze, I thought she would be easy to fail, so I called her over together." Ning Ning crossed her delicate index fingers together, smiled and nodded, "There are so many people to be happy."
