Oh, Liuxi Town, a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, is a beautiful place, with beautiful mountains and rivers and simple people.
There is a young man named Li Hao in the town, his life is hard, he has lost his father and mother since he was a child, but fortunately, there is a good-hearted person like Sister Zhang who took him in.
Sister Zhang herself doesn't have a son and a half daughter, and she treats Li Hao as her own son, and the people in the town call him "the little righteous son of the Zhang family".
Li Hao, a young man, is handsome and has a gentle personality, he has known gratitude since he was a child, helping Sister Zhang with housework, and also going to the river to fish to add some income to the family.
Although his life is not easy, he is full of gratitude to Sister Zhang, and he secretly swears in his heart that he will protect this righteous sister who gave him a second life for the rest of his life.
But who would have thought that within a few days of good days, strange things would come.
Every evening, under the old locust tree in the town there were crows, and they did not call, but circled around the trunk, as if there was some secret hidden in their eyes.
What's even more terrifying is that these crows also have green light flashing in their eyes from time to time, which makes people's hearts hairy.
At first, the townspeople didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that it was just the birds looking for a place to spend the winter.
But as time went on, there were more and more strange things, the old well in the backyard of Zhang's house suddenly dried up, and the neighbors' chickens and ducks disappeared inexplicably, and the atmosphere in the town became heavier and heavier day by day.
One night, Li Hao couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, and suddenly heard a strange sound, which woke him up from a half-dream.
The moonlight outside the window was hazy, and a big crow flew over and stopped on the windowsill, with pity and eagerness in his eyes. "Li Hao, you have to be careful, a catastrophe is coming!" The crow actually spoke, and his voice was low and powerful, as if he had traveled through time and space.
Li Hao was about to speak, but the crow turned into a black shadow and burrowed into his dream.
In his dream, he was surrounded by darkness, surrounded by green eyes, slowly approaching, and in his ears were the crows and whispers of crows, and he was overwhelmed by the sense of crisis. "Li Hao, wake up, you have to find out the truth, otherwise you and Liuxi Town will be finished!" The crow's voice echoed in the dream, and then everything was silent.
Li Hao opened his eyes suddenly, the sky was already bright, but the scene in the dream was still vivid.
Li Hao, this kid, in the dead of night, saw the crows wandering around a hole, as if there was some secret.
His heart was hot, and he thought to himself, he had to find out.
By the moonlight, he crept into the hole, listening to the low humming in his ears.
He took a deep breath, lit a torch, and walked inside.
The cave is crooked, and the air is wet and musty, but the more you go inside, the more you can smell a strange fragrance, refreshing your mind.
When he arrived at the innermost part of the cave, Li Hao's eyes lit up, and he found an antique altar, which was full of messy offerings, and there was a big black crystal ball in the middle, which was shining green, exactly the same as the light in the crow's eyes.
Li Hao stood in front of the altar with mixed feelings in his heart.
He pondered that all these strange things were caused by this crystal ball.
He slowly stretched out his hand to touch the green light, but stopped when he reached it. "What is this?
Why did you get me and Willow Creek into it? He muttered to himself, his heart full of doubts and uneasiness.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and the candles on the altar flickered, as if something was secretly watching him.
As soon as Li Hao turned around, he saw a crow standing at the entrance of the cave, its green eyes staring at him directly, as if waiting for him to make an idea. "I have to find a way, for the sake of my sister, for the sake of Willow Creek Town." Li Hao secretly swore in his heart that he knew that this road was not easy to take, but he had no choice.
"Hmph, it doesn't matter what kind of demon you are, I, Li Hao, have to see what you look like today!" He muttered as he pulled out the sharp knife he usually used for fishing from his waist, although it was rudimentary, but in his opinion, this thing was more powerful than a divine soldier.
As soon as Li Hao got closer, the light of the crystal ball became brighter, and it began to tremble, as if sensing his threat.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew from behind, and as soon as Li Hao turned around, he saw a group of crows surrounding him at some point, and the green eyes flashed in the dark, like ghost fire. "Hmph, you want to scare me?
There are no doors! Li Hao snorted coldly, raised his knife, and put on a posture.
Strangely, the crows didn't move, but slowly got out of the way, as if to lead him on.
Although Li Hao muttered in his heart, his footsteps did not stop.
He walked through the crows to the crystal ball, took a deep breath, and slashed down.
But he didn't hear the sound of cracking, but a warm and soft force poured out of the crystal ball, enveloping him at once.
Oh, I'll go, this thing really shocked Li Hao, his heart was as warm as drinking hot wine on the hot kang, and he felt that the burden and fear of the past few days were as if he had been blown away by the wind.
At this juncture, pictures suddenly popped up in his mind - it was the tranquility and harmony of Liuxi Town in the past, as well as the kind smiling face of Sister Zhang and the unpretentious faces of the villagers. "I see!" Li Hao really understood this time, it turned out that this crystal ball was not something crooked, it was the patron saint of Liuxi Town.
I just don't know when I was polluted by an evil spirit, so I made this series of strange things.
Thinking of this, the sense of responsibility in Li Hao's heart was like being beaten with chicken blood.
He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and connected his consciousness to the crystal ball.
In an instant, a powerful force turned over the river and the sea in his body, as if thousands of voices whispered in his ears, telling him about the past and future of Willow Creek Town. "I have to protect this place, protect my home!" Li Hao secretly swore in his heart, he opened his eyes and saw that the light of the crystal ball had become clear and bright, and the crows that were circling around him also seemed to feel his determination, fluttering their wings one by one, and flying away.
Li Hao walked out of the cave, and it was already the dawn outside.
He returned to Zhang's house and told Sister Zhang about last night's experience.
After hearing this, although Sister Zhang was skeptical, she still chose to believe him when she looked at Li Hao's firm eyes. "Hao'er, whether it's true or not, you are the pride of our Liuxi Town." Sister Zhang touched Li Hao's head, her eyes were full of love and pride.
Li Hao smiled, but he didn't dare to relax at all.
He knew that the real test had just begun.
In order to get rid of that evil spirit once and for all, he had to find the source and then wipe it out.
So, in the following days, Li Hao began to run around, looking for traces of that evil spirit.
He went through every town in Willow Creek and asked everyone who might know something.
Finally, on a stormy night, he discovered the source of the evil spirit in a deserted woodland outside the town, an ancient altar shrouded in black mist.
The altar was filled with all kinds of strange offerings, and in the center was a black orb similar to a crystal ball but exuding an evil aura.
Li Hao knew that this was the goal he was looking for.
He took a deep breath and raised the knife in his hand again, ready to fight the evil spirit.
But just as he was about to make a move, a dark shadow suddenly burst out from behind the altar and rushed straight at him.
Li Hao's eyes were quick, and he swung out with a knife, but only cut the corner of the black shadow's clothes.
He looked at it and saw that the man was wearing a black robe, looking hideous and terrifying, and he was the embodiment of that evil spirit. "Hmph, you little brat, dare to challenge me?" The black-robed man sneered, and with a wave of his hand, a powerful black qi rushed towards Li Hao.
Li Hao, this kid, is as fat as he is, holding the knife in his hand, and the strength in his heart, which came from the crystal ball, is all out of it at this time.
As soon as he flashed, he dodged the black gas thing, and his backhand was a knife, which went straight to the weakness of the black-robed man.
How could the black-robed man think that Li Hao was so capable, as soon as he didn't pay attention, the black-robed man was pulled out of a big hole, and the blood was hula, which made people tremble when they looked at it.
The black-robed man was angry, and with a roar, the black qi surged out as if he was crazy, wanting to swallow Li Hao.
But Li Hao, this kid, didn't coax, gritted his teeth, and used his strength to eat, one knife after another, just like chopping firewood, and greeted the black-robed man.
In the end, the black-robed man screamed, like smoke, and disappeared without a trace.
The layer of black fog above Liuxi Town has slowly dispersed, and the sky has also brightened, with blue sky and white clouds, it is comfortable to watch.
Li Hao stood on the altar, looking at this place, the beauty in his heart was like drinking honey.
He went back to the town and told the good news, and everyone listened to it, as if they were happy, and they all praised Li Hao as a big hero in Liuxi Town.
Sister Zhang's tears were like beads with broken threads, she knew that her Li Hao was now a big celebrity in the town.
She took Li Hao's hand, just like when she was a child, and patted it gently: "Hao'er, you have grown up, and you are better than me, who is a sister."
In the future, our Willow Creek Town will rely on you. ”
When Li Hao heard this, the taste in his heart was like overturning a five-flavor bottle.
He knew that he was just an ordinary young man, but this trust and trust made him feel that the burden on his shoulders was heavy, but it was also warm.
He nodded like pounded garlic: "Eldest sister, don't worry, with me, there is nothing going on in Liuxi Town!" ”
Since then, Li Haozhen seems to have changed as a person.
He is not only a young man who fishes to subsidize his family, but also becomes the patron saint of Willow Creek Town.
He runs everywhere, learning this and that, from the spells of driving away evil and avoiding disasters to the martial arts of strengthening the body, as long as he can protect the villagers, he is willing to learn and practice.
Time flies, and years pass in a flash.
Under the leadership of Li Hao, Liuxi Town not only restored the tranquility and harmony of the past, but also went to a higher level and prospered.
Li Hao's name is also well-known in this land and has become a hero admired by everyone.
But Li Hao himself understands in his heart that he can come to this day, not only because of his hard work and courage, but also because Sister Zhang and those simple and kind villagers have been silently supporting him behind his back.
In the dead of night, Li Hao always thinks of the night that changed his fate, the mysterious crow, and the weird crystal ball.
He was like a mirror in his heart, this was all a good show arranged by God, which made him fortunate to be a part of Liuxi Town, and had the opportunity to guard this land and the villagers here.
But just when Willow Creek Town seemed to have thrown that evil spirit far away, an even more jaw-dropping secret quietly revealed.
It turns out that Willow Creek Town has not always been so peaceful.
Once upon a time, this was a wasteland, overwhelmed by a stream of evil spirits.
Until one day, an immortal named "Liu Xian" came and used her powerful magic power to suppress the evil spirit, and also built Willow Creek Town here to guard this land from the evil spirit.
The black crystal ball was the treasure left by Liu Xian, which was originally innocent, able to absorb the righteousness between heaven and earth, and maintain the stability of the seal.
But after a long time, the environment changed, and the crystal ball was slowly eroded by the evil qi, losing its original divine power.
This is also the reason why there have always been some strange things in Willow Creek Town in recent years.
Li Hao knew in his heart, although he had killed the incarnation of the evil spirit of the black-robed man, the real threat had not completely stopped.
As long as the crystal ball continues to be eroded, sooner or later the evil spirit will return, once again threatening the peace of Willow Creek.
So, Li Hao decided to set off again.
With a deep affection for Willow Creek Town and a firm belief in the future, he embarks on a journey to find a way to purify the crystal ball and eradicate the evil qi once and for all.
Along the way, he encountered many hardships and obstacles, life and death tests, but he never flinched.
Because he knew that only in this way could he protect this place he loved so much and the people here.
Finally, one day, Li Hao found a reclusive master in a distant and mysterious place.
This master is not only proficient in all kinds of magic and medicine, but also has the magical power to purify evil energy.
Under Li Hao's sincere plea, the master promised to help him purify the crystal ball, and also taught him a set of secret methods that could permanently seal the evil qi.
After some hard work, Li Hao finally purified the crystal ball and resealed the evil qi.
When he returned to Liuxi Town with the crystal ball, the whole town was boiling, and the villagers all walked out of their homes to greet the hero, knowing that it was Li Hao who saved them again.
Li Hao just smiled slightly, he knew that everything he did was for the sake of this land and the people here.
He placed the crystal ball in a safer place, placing restrictions on it to ensure that it was no longer threatened.
Since then, nothing strange has happened to Willow Creek, and it still maintains that tranquility and harmony, as if time has stopped here.
And Li Hao also continued to stay in Liuxi Town, guarding this land he loved deeply and the people here.
He knew that as long as he was in Willow Creek, this land would never lose its peace and beauty.
