Don't mistake a tiger for a cat

parasitic.

Explained in scientific terms, that is, two organisms live together, one benefits and the other suffers, and the victim provides the beneficiary with nutrients and living places.

It sounds very uncomfortable.

When Yinfeng said these two words, many unspeakable pictures appeared in Lin Hezhen's mind, none of which made people feel happy.

Wu Xin gained eternal life by absorbing the spiritual power of others, so the person he robbed of his spiritual power was the victim of this parasitic relationship.

"So, the one who did the evil is the Wu Xin you mentioned?" Meng Heng was very surprised, but still grasped the point, "He killed the grandfather?"

Yinfeng and Lin Hezhen looked at each other, thinking about the same possibility, if the head of the Meng family also possessed spiritual power, he might become Wu Xin's target.

Shen Yuan also came over, picked up the picture of the game in the water pavilion on the ground, closed his eyes and felt the breath left on it, then shook his head and said: "It's not him, the breath is different."

Lin Hezhen believed in Shen Yuan's judgment. After all, he had fought with Nao things before, and no one knew better than him.

This is even more troublesome, and there is a complete clue of what the real evil thing is.

"Trouble." Yinfeng was a little impatient, looking at the frowning Lin Hezhen and said, "Don't you just want to know what happened here? I have a solution."

"No!" Lin Hezhen hurriedly pulled Yinfeng back, although he didn't know what he was going to do, but subconsciously felt that he should be stopped, "Didn't your lord forbid you to abuse spells?"

Yinfeng was flattered by Lin Hezhen's worry, and said with a smile, "If he really didn't want me to use it, he wouldn't just say the word 'abuse'."

In fact, the word "abuse" is very vague. To what extent is abuse?How to judge is up to Ying Chen, but Yinfeng knows that the scope of this "abuse" is definitely not a serious matter. After all, the matter Ying Chen asked him to investigate may also be related to this.

Yinfeng raised his hand and snapped his fingers, everything around him was like water flowing upstream, the time in this study was dialed back to 20 years ago, and all the truth was laid out naked in front of everyone.

Meng Heng and Meng Wei were dumbfounded, completely unaware of what had happened. When they opened their eyes again, they saw the grandfather they were most familiar with in their memory sitting behind the desk as if he was alive, holding a brush in his hand. What is written.

"Ancestor..."

"Do not talk."

As soon as Meng Wei opened his mouth, Shen Yuan stopped him, and said in a low voice: "This is a memory preserved in the study. Fortunately, it has not changed here for so many years. He... your grandfather, he can't see you."

Meng Wei gave Shen Yuan a strange look. From just now, he felt very strange. Why did Shen Yuan feel as if he had been here before? Not only was he familiar with this study, he was even familiar with the entire Meng family and himself. , who is he?

However, Shen Yuan didn't notice Meng Wei's gaze, because all his attention was on Meng Wei's grandfather. He also wanted to know what the truth was.

Meng Hongnian put down the brush in his hand, looked at the wooden box on the left hand side, sighed, and said with emotion: "I really can't bear it." Then he continued to write, densely writing a page.

Lin Hezhen was a little impatient. If he started watching it in 20 years, how long would it take to watch it now? It's like watching a movie and waiting for an easter egg. I wish the projectionist could press the fast forward button.

So Lin Hezhen turned to look at Yinfeng, and asked in a low voice, "Can you fast forward?"

"Yes." Yinfeng folded his arms around his chest calmly, raised his eyebrows and said, "What are the benefits?"

Lin Hezhen was a little confused, is this going to be beneficial?

Yinfeng leaned slightly against Lin Hezhen's ear, and said in a volume that only the two of them could hear: "Don't you want to know? If that's the case, shouldn't you give something in exchange?"

Yinfeng's voice is very magnetic, and it is too attractive when whispering in the ear, or it may be because Lin Hezhen's own lack of concentration, hearing Yinfeng say this, instantly blush.

But seeing the Meng family brothers and Shen Yuan standing opposite each other, looking at Meng Hongnian intently, my heart felt like a cat's paw, feeling that Yinfeng hadn't left yet, so I had to whisper: "First, I owe you... ..."

Yinfeng is satisfied, although this is the truth he wants to know, but before Lin Hezhen knows it, he can make him think that he owes him a favor, and find a way to give him some benefits.

Lin Hezhen, who had lost his wife, lost his army, and owed a debt for no reason, turned his head, and saw the surrounding scene change again. When Meng Hongnian turned to leave, something came out of a dark corner.

Like a wolf and like a dog, he is half the height of a man, with black hair all over his body, but with red mouth and red eyes, and a white tail.

"It's it! It's it!" Meng Heng was a little excited, and wanted to yell, but restrained his excitement due to the current situation, "The thing I saw was this dog!"

Lin Hezhen breathed a sigh of relief, this was considered stolen goods and cleared Shen Yuan's suspicion, but what is it?

"That's right." Yinfeng recognized this thing at a glance, "It's not a good thing, it should have died out thousands of years ago, why did it appear here?"

And what's even more strange is that they didn't realize the existence of Suji at all!

This is a very unimaginable thing, like this kind of monster that brings disasters when it appears, it will be discovered by Tianjing once it appears, but Yinfeng has never heard of the situation that it has been captured in recent years, that is to say This thing has the ability to hide its own aura, so it was not noticed by the center.

Lin Hezhen turned his head to take a look, and quickly let Yinfeng see: "Look, the person in the painting has moved."

As if hearing Lin Hezhen's words, the man even took a look at the painting, and immediately withdrew his paws that had been on the table and retreated into the darkness.

"This dog is raised by Wu Xin." Yin Feng boldly speculated, "The immediate function of this is to protect the painting from being destroyed, which means that the things in the box are a threat to them, so I immediately want to destroy it. Drop that thing, the people in the painting stop it."

"There is a threat, but you won't let it be destroyed?" Lin Hezhen felt that this was unreasonable.

Yinfeng said: "That means there are other plans."

Time passed quickly, and the scene changed again. This time it was Meng Hongnian sitting at the desk and calling someone.

"Master, the evil you mentioned..."

"Old Meng, this thing belongs to fire. It came here uninvited. It has been in your house for a long time. If things go on like this, your house will not be peaceful."

Meng Hongnian's face darkened: "Master, can you come to the humble house to find out?"

"Forgive me, Mr. Meng, but it is difficult to put out the fire near the water."

Meng Hongnian was so anxious that he coughed, and it took him a while to recover, and he asked, "Master, is there a way to save yourself?"

"If you can't break it, you need to be willing."

Meng Hongnian hung up the phone and pondered for a long time. Standing by the window, he didn't know what he was looking at, his expression became more and more serious, and his brows were furrowed as if he had made some decision.

The only one whose time was adjusted was this study, so everyone present did not know what Meng Hongnian was doing to be fascinated by it.

But Shen Yuan knew that he was looking at Meng Wei in the yard and himself beside him.

The fire monster came uninvited and lingered for a long time.

It turned out to be the case.

Shen Yuan closed her eyes silently, she turned out to be the scapegoat for doing this thing.

He hid in the study room, and the miasma surrounding Meng Hongnian made Meng Hongnian's body go from bad to worse. Even when Meng Hongnian was weak, he attached himself to him and occupied his body. He felt it through Meng Hongnian's hand. The existing Shen Yuan fell to the ground, and even trapped Shen Yuan with miasma, making him unable to wake up, and fell into a deep sleep like death.

Seeing this scene again with his own eyes, Shen Yuan's heart was very peaceful. He didn't blame Meng Hongnian, let alone Meng Wei. It wasn't their fault, let alone his own. The instigator was this evil dog and its owner.

"So I really raised a parrot..."

Meng Wei looked at his young self holding the dead parrot and ran out of the study crying. The great sadness infected him now. This strange memory made him feel dazed and heartbroken. Something kept beating in his heart. , he must like this parrot very much, but why doesn't he remember it at all?

Lin Hezhen felt that Meng Wei was a bit pitiful, and couldn't help but glance at Yinfeng, but Yinfeng turned his eyes away and looked at the painting on the wall.

At this time, the 狏 has already withdrawn from Meng Hongnian's body, it can't possess people for too long.

The person in the painting turned around quietly, stretched out a hand from the painting, like a ghost, passed through Meng Hongnian's body silently, and grabbed his heart.

The old and weak Meng Hongnian wanted to escape but couldn't move, wanted to call for help but couldn't make any sound, his eyes fell on the desk, and his hand reached for the tightly closed wooden box, as if looking for something Same thing as a lifesaver.

The moment Meng Hongnian touched the wooden box, as if he was afraid of it, that hand immediately retracted into the painting.

Lin Hezhen was very surprised and turned to Meng Heng: "Have you seen that box? What's in it?"

Meng Heng shook his head: "I've never seen it before, Meng Wei, have you seen it?"

Meng Wei couldn't stay at home, and only shook his head when he heard this.

Lin Hezhen, who didn't get the answer, frowned. He was sure that the person in the painting was Wu Xin. In other words, there was indeed something hidden in the Meng family. Wu Xin wanted it but was afraid, so did he want to destroy it or Want to occupy it for your own use?

Lin Hezhen thinks it should be the latter.

If this is the case, then it can be explained that Meng Heng was plotted by others, and Wu Xin wanted but didn't get such a thing.

The scene in the study room changed again. At this time, Meng Hongnian was already quite weak, and he was struggling to speak. A Taoist priest sitting opposite him was holding a dust whisk and his hair was full of silver threads.

Lin Hezhen had just thought about whether the person talking to Meng Hongnian was his master, but now he was a little disappointed to see if it wasn't. Sure enough, the world is still very big, and not everyone can meet just by chance.

"The people in the painting are gone."

Lin Hezhen didn't realize until he heard Yinfeng's whispered reminder. At this time, there were only two people in the picture of the game in the water pavilion, and Wu Xin, who should have been in the picture, had disappeared.

"Old Meng, it's late."

Meng Hongnian nodded slightly: "I know..."

The Taoist stroked his beard: "The evil thing used your hands to get rid of the divine bird that protected your grandson."

Meng Hongnian was silent for a while, with unspeakable regret in his eyes: "I knew that this thing would inevitably lead to disasters, but I never thought that there are evil spirits in this world. I just pity my two grandchildren, I'm afraid they will be like me ..."

The Taoist raised his hand to stop Meng Hongnian from continuing: "Old Meng, I reminded you that if you don't break, you need to be willing."

"I... can't bear it..."

"That being the case, there is nothing Pindao can do to help."

"Grandmaster!"

"Forget it, Pindao once owed you a trigram, so let's pay it back now."

The Taoist didn't wait for Meng Hongnian to speak, he took out three copper coins from his sleeve and put them in the turtle shell, poured out the three copper coins and scattered them on the table while muttering something, and stroked his beard with the dust whisk in his right hand I pondered for a long time.

"Water and sky need, 'The pearl has been buried in the earth for a long time, and the sky has no light until now. Suddenly the strong wind blows the earth away, and it will be revealed and reappeared naturally. O Note'"

"What does this hexagram mean?"

"Let's wait for the nobleman to help."

When Meng Hongnian heard that there was hope, he was a little excited: "When will the nobleman come?"

"Twenty years later."

Meng Hongnian's smile froze and turned into a wry smile: "I don't have much time, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait."

The Taoist didn't answer, but said instead, "Old Meng, that divine bird needs to be dealt with properly."

"Master, please give me an idea."

"The divine bird does not belong to the mortal world. It needs to find a place with suitable geomantic omens and shui to bury it properly, or when it returns to the human world one day, it will meet noble people. I wish your Meng family survive this calamity."

"Everything is up to the master." Meng Hongnian sighed, "I only hope that Meng Wei can forgive me one day and understand that I can't help myself..."

"He'll understand..."

Yinfeng: I don't want to do business, I just want to fall in love.
