Chapter 18 Where the ghost comes, the dog will not stay
At night, the moon rises above the branches.
Lin Ke and Lin Xi'er walked out of Buzhou Forest, returned to Huojiao City, and finally arrived at Lin Mansion.
There are two rows of lanterns hanging on the vermilion gate, which are bright and eye-catching, and illuminate the stone beasts on both sides of the gate, making them particularly ferocious.
"rustle."
There are still dozens of feet away from the gate.
Suddenly, Lin Ke's expression changed slightly, he stopped and glanced around.
Lin Ke's elemental sense was strong, and he could sense dozens of powerful auras, entrenched outside the Lin Mansion, which seemed to have some agenda. Especially after he appeared, those auras became agitated.
"Aiming at me? It seems to be related to the Purple Star Ancient Jade. There are so many greedy people." Lin Ke's fingers touched his waist and hid a flying knife in his hand, just in case.
Grabbing Lin Xi'er's wrist, Lin Ke quickened his pace and rushed towards the door of Lin Mansion as if he was speeding.
After all, the Lin family is one of the four major families in Fire Dragon City.
As long as you enter Lin Mansion, you will be safe.
"Swish, swish."
The sound of breaking wind sounded.
I saw two figures in black cloaks flying out from the treetops, like two ghosts, rushing straight towards Lin Ke.
The two of them each held a shining silver chain in their hands, with sharp barbed hooks tied to the ends of the chain. Still in the air, the two chains flew out carrying two hooks, like silver snakes, entangled
Xiang Lin carved the neck and legs.
Lin Ke glanced sideways behind him and pulled Lin Xi'er, walking as fast as flying.
However, the speed of the hook and chain was faster, and they were about to fall on Lin Ke.
The door of Lin Mansion suddenly opened.
"Bold, who dares to hurt my grandson?" A thunderous voice sounded.
Lin Zhongao rushed out of the door and appeared behind Lin Ke in an instant. His robe was flying. He reached out to grab two chains and suddenly dragged them behind him.
"Bang bang."
Two men in black fell from the air and fell heavily on the stone slab.
Both of them were masters. The moment they landed, they slapped their palms on the ground and their bodies flew up. However, before they could stand firm, their throats stiffened.
Lin Zhongao's hands had already grabbed their throats and lifted them off the ground.
Immediately afterwards, his hands turned into palms and hit their chests, causing the two of them to fall to the ground again. This time, the stone slabs under them were shattered and they could no longer get up from the ground.
After these days of training, Lin Zhongao has recovered more than half of his injuries by virtue of his profound skills, showing his full mastery.
Lin Zhongao's eyes were burning as he scanned the dark night, integrating his energy into his voice, he raised his voice and said: "No matter who you are, listen to me. Whoever dares to touch my grandson, I, Lin Zhongao, will definitely make him die without burial."
There is no point in escaping to the ends of the earth."
Lin Zhongao's voice was as loud as thunder, spreading throughout most of the Fire Dragon City.
Lin Zhongao raised his right foot and stepped on the ground.
"boom!"
Powerful vitality surged out from the soles of their feet, shattering the half-foot-thick bluestone beneath their feet into powder. At the same time, the two black-clothed warriors who fell to the ground were blown away by the waves of vitality.
The black cloaks on their bodies were in pieces, their bodies were covered in blood and flesh, and they were dead.
The dozens of warriors hidden in the night were obviously frightened by Lin Zhongao's powerful force and immediately retreated, not daring to stay outside the Lin Mansion any longer.
However, there are exceptions...
There is a dark wind blowing.
I saw a blood-red lantern with a ghost face printed on it, rising from the darkness and appearing a hundred meters high in the sky, emitting a strange light.
The lantern is only the size of a human head, surrounded by raindrops of will-o'-the-wisps.
Inside the lamp, a hoarse and cold laughter came: "Lin Zhongao, you can't protect Lin Ke. If you don't hand over all the Purple Star Ancient Jade, the entire Lin family will be destroyed."
Weird.
How can a small lantern make a sound?
Could there be another person inside?
How can there be such a small person!
Lin Xi'er grabbed Lin Ke's arm, stared at the lantern, and said nervously: "Brother, is it a ghost? Even ghosts are so greedy?"
Lin Ke patted Lin Xi'er's back gently, telling her not to be afraid, and smiled lightly: "Of course it's not a ghost, it's just a sound transmission method. Use your own energy to transmit the sound into the lantern through the air. Followed by
When the vitality is released, the sound is also released. This kind of little trick can only be used to scare people!"
Although he said this, Lin Ke frowned, showing a hint of worry.
You must know that only by cultivating the "Great Martial Arts" to the ninth level and reaching the master level can the vitality leave the body and fly several meters away, or even dozens of meters away, to attack the enemy.
Being able to use vitality to transmit sounds hundreds of meters away, with such precise control, is not something that ordinary masters can achieve.
Must be a master.
The master among masters.
"If you have the ability, don't pretend to be a ghost. It's not that easy to destroy the Lin family."
Lin Zhongao let out a deep snort and performed a master move. He pointed his index finger a little in the air, and a beam of vitality finger flew out and hit the ghost face lantern.
"Bang."
The lantern exploded and burst into flames, burning into ashes in mid-air.
Lin Zhongao's vitality can actually be transmitted a hundred meters away, and his attack power is still so strong.
The master who was hiding in the dark seemed to be testing Lin Zhongao's cultivation and strength with his previous trick. After achieving his goal, he did not show up but chose to retreat.
However, in the night, the sinister laughter sounded again: "The road to immortality is difficult, and the soul belongs to Louis. Wherever the ghost comes, no chicken or dog will be left behind. Lin Ke, Lin Zhongao, your good days are numbered!"
The voice became deeper and deeper, and by the time the last word came out, the man was already several miles away.
Hearing the sound in the night, Lin Zhongao's expression changed again and again.
Lin Xi'er was quite puzzled and asked: "Brother, what did that person mean by the last words he said?"
Lin Ke became more serious than ever before. After being silent for a long time, he said: "Wherever ghosts come, no chickens or dogs will be left behind - the Ghost Palace."
The Ghost Palace is an extremely mysterious killer organization. They have their shadow throughout the White Tribulation Star. According to legend, they are one of the members of the Demon Alliance.
Fire Dragon City is the territory of Blood Clothes Castle and the four major families. The five forces have always maintained a delicate balance. Does the Ghost Palace also want to get a share of the pie?
Will the balance be disturbed?
On the cliff on the mountainside of Sering Mountain, Feng Xiaoqian was running his skills, entering the state of "Qi Condensation Light Cocoon", maximizing his eyesight and ears, and looking at the brightly lit Fire Dragon City in the distance.
Although the distance was far away, she could clearly see everything happening outside the Lin Mansion, and she could also hear the voices of Lin Zhongao and others.
Her first sense of sight and second sense of hearing are far beyond those of ordinary warriors, and she has extraordinary talents.
"How come the power of the Ghost Palace extends to Fire Dragon City?" Feng Xiaoqian asked.
Chang Shituo said: "According to the intelligence we collected, the Blood-clothed Castle is closely related to the Ghost Palace, so we speculate that the Blood-clothed Castle is also a member of the Demon Alliance."
"What close contact?" Feng Xiaoqian asked.
"Yuan Che, the Lord of the Blood Clothes Castle, is most likely Zhang Che, the second disciple of the Lord of the Ghost Palace. Eight years ago, the Ghost Palace claimed that Zhang Che wanted to hunt an earth elemental beast as a mount, but he lost his life because of this.
forest."
"But, just eight years ago, a man named Yuan Che appeared out of thin air in Fire Dragon City and established the Blood Clothes Castle."
"Moreover, in just eight years, the Blood Clothes Castle has surpassed the four major families and become the number one force in Fire Dragon City. It is absolutely impossible to say that there is no support from big forces behind this."
"Unfortunately, these are all speculations, and we have not found conclusive evidence yet. Yuan Che was too cautious and did not leave any loopholes."
Feng Xiaoqian's eyes showed a thoughtful look as he said: "Huo Jiao City is located on the edge of Buzhou Forest and has an advantageous geographical location. Whoever controls Huo Jiao City is equivalent to controlling more than half of the interests of Buzhou Forest.
It is possible that the Ghost Palace is playing this game. In this case, their target is not the Purple Star Ancient Jade at all, but the Lin family."
Chang Shituo nodded and said: "That's right, now there are only four major families standing in front of the Blood-clothed Castle. In the past, Lin Ke guarded the Lin family, and neither the Blood-clothed Castle nor the Ghost Palace dared to act rashly. Now,
Lin Ke's cultivation was abolished, and the Blood-clothed Castle finally showed its fangs and was actually the first to attack the Lin family."
"Speed up the collection of intelligence. We must stop them and protect the Lin family no matter what." Feng Xiaoqian said.
…
Back in the room, Lin Ke kept thinking, who spread the news about the Purple Star Ancient Jade?
The Lin family members certainly wouldn’t.
Could it be Qianji Chamber of Commerce?
However, Yang Bin clearly swore that the Qianji Chamber of Commerce would never deal with the Lin family.
As a president, if he goes back on his word, it will affect the reputation of the entire Qianji Chamber of Commerce, and the senior management of the Qianji Chamber of Commerce will not let him go.
Really having no clue, Lin Ke took out the original mirror and entered the Skynet platform in the original illusion mirror to look for clues.
The original illusion mirror has two major platforms: the original skynet and the martial arts illusion mirror.
The fastest way to spread the news is through the original Skynet.
However, if you want to publish news on the original Tianwang, you must first undergo real-name authentication.
Opening the original Skynet, Lin Ke saw a lot of news about the "Purple Star Ancient Jade". In addition, the mirror image of Lin Zhongao killing two warriors in black was also reflected and uploaded.
All the warriors in Fire Dragon City who own the Original Mirror have left messages below.
"Mr. Lin is worthy of being a master-level man, and his fighting power is truly tyrannical."
"Lin Ke is that guy who is worse than a pig or a dog. If you are protecting him, he should be allowed to die. Killing the sect leader and defiling the sect leader's wife is extremely despicable and shameless."
"The Ghost Palace is also interested in the Purple Star Ancient Jade. Now the Lin family is in danger. There is no guarantee that there will really be a disaster of annihilation."
…
Lin Ke ignored those messages and continued to look for the person who originally spread the news about the "Purple Star Ancient Jade".
After half an hour, I finally found it.
"Yang Mingce. Blood-clothed Master of the Fourth Battalion of the Blood-clothed Guards of the Blood-clothed Castle, a cultivator of the seventh heaven of the "Great Martial Arts", and the nephew of Yang Bin, the president of the Fire Dragon City branch of the Thousand-Ji Chamber of Commerce."
After reading Yang Mingce's information, Lin Ke showed a smile on his face: "This President Yang is really a good calculator! What a trick to kill someone with a borrowed knife."
Using Yang Mingce to spread the news will naturally sever ties with Qianji Chamber of Commerce, which is not considered a violation of the oath. Even if I release the mirror image of his oath, there will be nothing to do with him.
"But, by getting so close to the Blood-clothed Castle, Yang Bin, Yang Bin, you are seeking your own death."
Once upon a time, before his cultivation was abolished, Lin Ke was ready to clean up the Blood-clothed Castle and eliminate this cancer. Therefore, he carefully checked the Blood-clothed Castle and found that Yuan Che, the master of the Blood-clothed Castle, was actually the former master of the Ghost Palace.
The second disciple is Zhang Che.
Unfortunately, before he could take action, the next thing happened.
"The Ghost Palace is a member of the Demon Alliance, and the Demon Alliance is the public enemy of the warriors in the world. As long as it is revealed that the Blood Clothes Castle is also a member of the Demon Alliance, the Lin family's crisis will be solved."
"However, Yuan Che is very cautious, and it is very difficult to catch him."
At this moment, the original mirror trembled slightly.
Lin Ke let out a light sigh and quickly entered the virtual Holy Gate. A paragraph of text appeared: "Lin Juexing is dead. The mission is completed. Congratulations to Zang Feng. You have received a bounty of 20,000 taels of silver and 300 merit points."
