Volume Three: The Case of Hundred Ghosts at Night Chapter Ninety-Three: Closing the Net
Early the next morning, Linyang Square in Linyang City was already crowded with people.
Linyang Square is located in the south city of Linyang City. It is the widest square in the entire Linyang City. It used to be a lively market where vendors set up stalls to sell all kinds of things.
But today, the reason why so many people gathered was not because of what was going to be sold today.
It’s because the Immortality Sect’s Immortality Ceremony is scheduled to be held here!
If you look carefully, you will find that there are not only ordinary people here today, but also many famous families in Linyang City.
Of course, these famous families are not here to watch the fun, but have other plans.
You must know that the notice posted by the Immortality Sect has clearly stated that the culprit of the so-called "Hundred Ghosts at Night Case" is Duan Ming, known as the "Lame Sixth Man in Nancheng".
And Duan Ming is now a very famous person in Linyang City.
After all, not everyone is qualified to be a tool in the struggle between the Immortality Cult and the Mirror.
That's right, in the eyes of these people, Duan Ming is just a tool.
Duan Ming, as a "non-staff consultant of the Der Spiegel Department", is not a regular official of the Der Spiegel Department, but also has a close relationship with the Der Spiegel Department.
So, will Mirror Secretary risk the world's disapproval and confront the Immortality Cult for Duan Ming?
If we don't do this, Mirror Division will definitely make people feel cold.
And if it is done, the Mirror Division will definitely be criticized by people all over the world.
It can be said that no matter what the Mirror Division chooses, it will be very beneficial to the Immortality Sect.
As for whether Duan Ming is the culprit of the "Hundred Ghosts Night Case", this kind of thing seems not so important.
"Brilliant divine power, immeasurable immortality!" While everyone was waiting anxiously, people from the Immortality Sect slowly came from a distance.
At this moment, Duan Ming was wearing common clothes and walking calmly among the Changsheng Cult. He didn't look like he was going to the execution ground, but rather like he was returning to his hometown with honor.
Soon, the people of the Changsheng Cult had arrived at the center of Linyang Square - on a newly built high platform.
"Brilliant divine power, immeasurable immortality." The master of Chi Yuan Palace stood at the top of the high platform, slowly sat cross-legged, and shouted in a low voice: "The fleeting light clearly proves the magical power. Ghosts and gods will make changes, and all evil spirits will dissipate..."
As Master Chi Yuan sang, a member of the Immortality Sect sat on the high platform, chanting an unknown mantra in a low voice.
When everyone in the audience heard the singing, they immediately felt as if their whole bodies were bathing in spring water, and their whole bodies felt indescribably comfortable.
Duan Ming, who was standing on the high platform, also felt this feeling, and couldn't help but have a dumb look in his eyes.
No wonder the Immortality Sect has become a great religion far superior to Buddhism, Taoism and many other sects in just a few years. It does have its own abilities.
But you don’t need to think about it to know that such magical power must come from those twelve longevity runes!
Thinking of this, Duan Ming's eyes showed a hint of heat.
Duan Ming even felt shaken in his heart. Do he really want to go against the Immortality Sect for the sake of the world?
If you obey the Immortality Cult, then the probability of obtaining the twelve runes will be far easier than fighting against it.
But then, Duan Ming gave up his idea.
According to the previous conversation with the master of Chi Yuan Hall, the Immortality Sect does not lack a hall master, and they will not pay special attention to themselves because they have realized the mystery of the longevity rune.
Otherwise, the Immortality Sect would not have brought him here as a means of dealing with the Mirror Division.
As for the real runes, I'm afraid they are extremely secret within the Immortality Sect. Unless I am among the senior officials of the Immortality Sect, I don't have to think about it at all.
However, he had helped Mingjingsi destroy the plans of the Immortality Sect more than once, and now his relationship with Xing Qianqiu was "unclear".
Can the Immortality Cult trust such a person? Can they really make him a high-level person?
Therefore, if you want to become a senior member of the Immortality Sect, there is only one way, which is to show that you possess an immortality rune that the Immortality Sect does not have.
However, this is tantamount to revealing one's trump card. Although it is possible to become a high-ranking official in the Immortality Sect, it is more likely to be a "little man with a jade".
The greater possibility is that he was caught by the Immortality Cult and asked about the longevity runes he knew.
Duan Ming didn't dare to gamble, so he had no choice but to go to the dark side.
Thinking of this, Duan Ming calmed down and slowly glanced at the faces of everyone in the audience.
Some of these people he knew, some he didn't know...
Some are worried, some are angry, some are in tears, some are gloating...
For some reason, Duan Ming had a faint realization in his heart. Coupled with the singing of the Immortality Cult members, he seemed to have a deeper understanding of the two Immortality Runes.
At this moment, Xing Qianqiu was standing in a restaurant not far away with many Mingjing ministers with serious faces.
They were waiting. According to Duan Ming's arrangement, all their chess pieces had fallen, just waiting for the moment to finally close the net.
Time passed by, and the Immortality Dharma Assembly was gradually coming to an end.
Palace Master Chi Yuan finally stood up, his eyes sweeping over the faces of everyone in the audience like a hawk.
Qingcheng, who was standing next to the master of Chiyuan Hall, also slowly stood up and said in a deep voice: "This sect has eliminated all the evil spirits in Linyang City. However, you common people should also know that the previous Hundred Ghosts Night Parade actually
It’s just pretending to be a ghost.”
"Now, our religion has caught the pretender, it is Duan Ming, the 'non-staff consultant' of the Mirror Department."
"Now, following the will of Master Chi Yuan, we should kill the culprit at this moment to appease the souls of the deceased..."
At this moment, Xing Qianqiu, who had been silent all this time, sighed deeply, took out the long knife in his hand, and planned to rush out to rescue Duan Ming.
However, just when Xing Qianqiu was about to take action, his eyes suddenly lit up and he landed on a familiar figure in the crowd.
"Let's go!" Xing Qianqiu waved his hand, and all the Mirror officers rushed out, instantly surrounding the entire square.
Everyone in the square was stunned when they saw this scene, and even the Master Chi Yuan on the stage frowned.
"Is this Mingjing Secretary really willing to commit the great injustice of the world to save Duan Ming?" Palace Master Chi Yuan secretly thought in his heart: "Is this paragraph of Mingming really that important?"
However, contrary to the expectations of Palace Master Chi Yuan, instead of rushing to the high platform, everyone in the Mirror Division rushed to the corner of the crowd.
Among the crowd, several people who hid their bodies in the shadows changed their expressions and wanted to run away.
But they have no way to escape!
"Chu Hao!" Xing Qianqiu fell in front of several people, the long knife in his hand shone with a chilling chill: "Where do you and these friends want to go?"
"Haha, Xing, Commander Xing..." Chu Hao, the city guard, looked at Xing Qianqiu, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "What are you doing?"
"What are you doing?" Xing Qianqiu flashed the knife in his hand and put it on Chu Hao's neck: "Don't you know?"
