Chapter 2137: Cutting the weed but not eradicating the root

PreviousBack to directoryNext
While Lin Haoming was still looking for clues, there was a small, dark cave in the belly of an unknown hill hundreds of miles away from Dithief City.

The entire cave passage has been sealed for who knows how many years. There is only a space of several feet in the deepest part of the mountain. In this space, except for a stone coffin, there is nothing else.

Already.

If Lin Haoming discovered this place at this time, he would be surprised to find that this sarcophagus is almost exactly the same except that it is only half the size of the destroyed sarcophagus.

Suddenly, a white light came in from the top of the cave rock wall, and then fell on the lid of the sarcophagus, and suddenly submerged into it, and then some runes on the lid began to emit some dark light.

, giving people an extremely cold feeling.

As the light became stronger and stronger, the light wrapped around the coffin lid and gradually floated up.

After rising about ten feet high, the light surrounding the coffin lid quickly condensed into a ball, and then fell towards the sarcophagus. Not long after, a hand that looked a little dry stretched out from the sarcophagus, and suddenly

He grabbed the edge of the sarcophagus.

This withered hand just grabbed the edge and did not climb out of the sarcophagus immediately. Instead, it continued to absorb the falling light. As the light moistened it, the withered hand gradually became plump, and the skin that originally looked like tree bark

, it actually became smoother and smoother, but in a short period of time, it no longer looked any different from ordinary people, and was even more delicate than ordinary people.

When the light completely disappeared, a young man who looked about twenty years old climbed out of the sarcophagus. However, when the man took out the sarcophagus, he almost lost his balance and fell. Obviously, this man looked like an ordinary person.

There is no difference, but the body seems extremely weak.

The man soon sat down cross-legged next to the sarcophagus and began to regulate his breathing. A few days passed by and when the man stood up again a few days later, the weakness was no longer there.

The man then leaned into the sarcophagus and seemed to be groping for it. Soon he carefully collected several storage bags and other things on his body, then picked up one of them, raised his hand, and with a ray of glow,

Take this sarcophagus in as well.

Without the sarcophagus, this cave is no different from an ordinary cave. The man looked around, a stern look flashed in his eyes, and said to himself: "Cui Changting, if you dare to attack me, you will bear my revenge. You really

Do you think it’s perfect?”

After saying these words that made people itch with hatred, the man pinched the magic formula. Under the stimulation of the magic formula, the rocks under the man's feet seemed to turn into muddy water, and then the man disappeared into the muddy water.

Already.

After several days of searching, Lin Haoming still found nothing, which gave Lin Haoming a headache. Because of this matter, what he had always believed in made him hesitate.

When he was attacked, Lin Haoming always suspected that the matter was related to Cui Changting. Even if he did not do it, he should have acquiesced or provided convenience. But after seeing Cui Changting's miserable appearance, Lin Haoming did not think that someone would use the bitter meat trick.

Such an extreme degree.

Now, Lin Haoming feels that what happened to him is really like what Yao Dong said before, and it may be related to the evil way back then.

Thinking of this, Lin Haoming also began to pay attention to the affairs of the Demon Dao. Some old people from those years were brought to him one by one, but no matter how Lin Haoming asked, he still had no clue. These people knew very little about the Demon Dao.

Even if some people said something that seemed like secrets, it would not help Lin Haoming at all, which made Lin Haoming's investigation reach a dead end for a while.

Under such circumstances, Gong Xinlan was finally arriving.

The day Gong Xinlan arrived was almost two months after Cui Changting was attacked, which was considered very fast for Gong Xinlan who came from Tianman Mansion in the name of inspection.

As the second most powerful person in Tianman Mansion now, Gong Xinlan is very likely to become the leader of Tianman Mansion in the future. After Cui Changting recovered from his injuries for nearly two months, he walked out and appeared in front of everyone.

Gong Xinlan came by Tianpeng flying car, so she did not need to go to the city gate to greet her. She only needed to greet her at the city lord's mansion at the time of arrival.

On the day Gong Xinlan arrived, Cui Changting also appeared early in front of a group of thieves who came to the city lord's mansion.

For this city lord who was seriously injured for the safety of the Underworld City, many people responded with greetings, allowing Cui Changting to once again enjoy the feeling of being surrounded and complimented by others. However, his current weakness still made everyone look at him at a glance.

You can see it.

As the general judge of the Underworld City, Fang Yun also came early. Not only did this general judge not show up on the day the city lord was attacked, but he still ignored the affairs of the Underworld City after the city lord was injured.

Tong Zhi dealt with Lin Haoming as if he had nothing to do with Dithief City at all, which created a completely opposite situation between the Master Tong San and Cui Changting.

Fang Yun had long been used to this kind of thing. He even took out a bottle of wine before Gong Xinlan arrived and started drinking it. It seemed very comfortable, but in fact it was the same as the one who was in a lot of troubles now.

There was a sharp contrast among the people in the officialdom of Dithief City.

After Lin Haoming arrived here, he gathered with Song Ting and others to talk about the case, including Bao Wanchang, who had teamed up with Lin Haoming twice.

After so many days of recuperation, Bao Wanchang's injuries have basically recovered, but there is still some loss of vitality. If he wants to make up for it, it will take at least a year and a half to recuperate, but he is much better than Cui Changting.

Lin Haoming told everyone about some of the circumstances of his investigation, especially his original suspicions about demons.

After several people heard this, those who participated in the killing of the demon were also greatly surprised, especially Song Ting, who was the one who killed the demon. He was even more surprised by this incident, and he was also a little confused.

, regardless of whether the person who did it is the demon that has not been eliminated, or the demon's good friend, teacher, or the like, why not find the person who killed the demon instead of Cui Changting.

Lin Haoming is actually a little confused about this. After all, looking for himself is the most relevant thing to him, but looking for Cui Changting does feel a bit far-fetched. Of course, when Cui Changting faced this matter, he also dealt with it decisively.

It makes sense to really count him as an enemy, but it always feels a bit far-fetched, but I can't find a better reason to explain.

In this way, in a rather chaotic situation among the palm-printing officials, at some point, soldiers came to deliver the message. Gong Xinlan's Tianpeng flying car had arrived near Dithief City, so all the officials, big and small, immediately followed the instructions.

The ranks have been arranged according to one's own rank.

Just after everyone stood in their own positions, several black spots appeared in the sky in the distance. What could it be if it wasn't a Tianpeng flying car?
