At noon, in an empty courtyard of the Du family, a high altar was built with yellow paper, glutinous rice, cinnabar, writing brushes and other utensils on it.
In the open space in front of the altar, there are seven star lanterns and one Kongming lantern. The Kongming lantern is made of yellow paper with cinnabar drawn on it. The Kongming lantern is placed in the center of the open space. The seven star lanterns are based on the Kongming lantern.
The center is divided into seven directions to form a circular arrangement. Each star lantern is about seven or eight meters away from the Kongming Lantern in the middle.
And each star lantern is connected to the middle Kongming lantern with a red thread, and the red threads are tied to the middle of the Kongming lantern and the wick of the star lantern respectively.
Lin Tianqi stood behind the altar, with Liu Shengnan standing next to him. The courtyard corridor behind them was full of people. Du Ziteng, Du Tianwei, and Huang's three main masters of the Du family were there. In addition, Cheng Zhengsheng
Also here are Wu Sanjiang and his daughter Wu Qingqing, plus the thugs they brought behind them, a total of dozens of people.
However, Wu Sanjiang came here just to watch the excitement. After last night, he had figured out the situation of the Cheng family and the Du family, but he didn't care too much about the affairs of these two families.
We don't have much friendship, although the initial purpose of coming here was to find cooperation with the Du family.
However, it is not necessary to cooperate with the Du family. In the entire Luo City, in addition to the Du family and the Cheng family, there are two or three families that are not necessarily less powerful than the Du family and the Cheng family. If he can't reach an agreement here, he can definitely find another one.
The three families are talking about cooperation, so at this moment, if something happens to the Cheng family and the Du family, he is not too worried about how it will affect his goals.
Wu Sanjiang didn't care too much about the lives and deaths of Cheng Musheng and Du Yujuan. On the contrary, he was more interested in Lin Tianqi at this moment.
He has seen a lot of charlatans over the years, but most of them are liars who have no real skills and are mostly just swindlers, or people who just know some low-level tricks. Those who are really capable are rare. Looking at it,
With his posture, he became more and more curious, wanting to see what kind of battle Lin Tianqi could come up with.
Wu Sanjiang did not look down upon Lin Tianqi because of his appearance. He even had some other thoughts in his heart. If Lin Tianqi was really a capable person, he would not even mind helping him and forming a good relationship, because he knew very well.
If you make friends with a truly capable warlock and use him well, his value is absolutely immeasurable.
From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the expressions of Du Tianwei, Du Ziteng, Cheng Zhengsheng and others not far away. He could clearly feel that the indifference in the eyes of these people when they looked at Lin Tianqi and Liu Shengnan showed absolutely no kindness.
After a quick glance, he looked away again, his face expressionless.
Wu Sanjiang looked at Wu Qingqing next to him again, and saw the gnashing of teeth on his daughter's face that he could not hide even if he wanted to. Her eyes were fixed on Lin Tianqi, as if she wanted to eat someone, her eyes flickered for a moment, and she said nothing.
He knew that Wu Qingqing should have met Lin Tianqi before, and he was afraid that he had suffered a loss from Lin Tianqi, otherwise he would not be like this.
Wu Sanjiang was thoughtful, but he didn't say much, mainly because this was not the place to talk.
Wu Qingqing gritted her teeth. She recognized Lin Tianqi from the first moment she saw him. This guy was so easy to recognize and impressed her so deeply. What she experienced yesterday was like nothing she had experienced since she was a child.
, the thing that made her most ashamed, angry and humiliating.
"Asshole, bastard...just wait for me. If I don't deal with you later, I won't believe Wu!"
Wu Qingqing was almost furious and wanted to rush up and eat Lin Tianqi alive. However, seeing the situation at the scene, she knew that this was not a place where she could cause trouble, so she had to temporarily suppress her anger and could only look at Lin Tianqi with gritted teeth.
, I scolded him countless times in my heart.
Beside the altar, Lin Tianqi looked solemn, making seals with his hands and casting spells, but he completely ignored Wu Qingqing who was gnashing his teeth behind him. In fact, he had noticed Wu Qingqing and recognized her when he first arrived here.
, but didn’t care.
At this moment, he didn't pay much attention to Wu Qingqing's thoughts.
"Bring it here." After everything was arranged, Lin Tianqi shouted behind him.
"Take it over." Du Tianwei pointed to a subordinate next to him.
The man came out after hearing the sound, holding a wooden plate in his hand. There was only a piece of paper in the plate. The piece of paper was folded in half, and there were words written inside. It was Du Yujuan's birth date. Lin Tianqi took the note and combined it with a charm.
Fit it, then pinch out a seal and punch it out.
"吅!"
The talisman that fits the birth date fell on a star lantern. In an instant, all seven star lanterns burned. Then, the red thread wrapped around the wick of the star lantern also burned, and the flame followed the red thread to the middle one.
The sky lanterns spread out and looked like seven live wires.
Finally, the flames of the seven live wires met, and the inside of the Kongming Lantern suddenly lit up.
The seven red wires burned out, and heat gradually filled the Kongming Lantern. Slowly, the Kongming Lantern began to float from the ground.
Behind Lin Tianqi, everyone who watched this scene couldn't help but shrink their pupils. Just after Lin Tianqi cast the spell, everyone could clearly see the natural scene of the seven star lanterns. For them,
These methods can be called unbelievable, and Wu Sanjiang was even more eye-catching.
The sky lantern was suspended, slowly rising, rising higher and higher. After a few minutes, it had risen to an altitude of twenty or thirty meters, and then slowly floated towards the outside of the city.
Lin Tianqi glanced at the direction the Kongming Lantern was floating, and chased after Liu Shengnan.
"Follow me!"
Du Tianwei behind him saw this and gave the order directly.
The Kongming Lantern rose to high altitude, floated out from Du's house, and then floated out of the city. Lin Tianqi and Liu Shengnan followed from Du's house, always paying attention to the direction of the Kongming Lantern above their heads, and walked along the street in the direction of the Kongming Lantern, behind them
, Du Tianwei, Du Ziteng, Cheng Zhengsheng, Wu Sanjiang and others also followed.
"Hey, isn't that Master Du? Are there also Master Cheng and Master Du? What's going on? There are so many people."
"What are they doing? It seems they are chasing something. They are looking at the sky."
"Kongming Lantern, there is a Kongming Lantern in the sky, what's going on? Are Master Du and Master Cheng chasing this Kongming Lantern?"
On the street, the behavior of Lin Tianqi and other people attracted the attention of people walking along the way. Especially when they saw Du Tianwei, Cheng Zhengsheng, Du Ziteng and others, it caused quite a commotion. They watched the behavior of the group and the Kongming Lantern floating in the sky outside the city, and started talking.
One after another.
However, Lin Tianqi and his party did not pay much attention to these people's comments, and directly followed the direction in which the Kongming Lantern was floating, all the way out of the city.
The Kongming Lantern has been floating at a height of tens of meters in the sky, slowly drifting in one direction. The speed is not very fast. It took nearly half an hour to float out from the city. It was slow and easy. When chasing out of the city, the group
It's like taking a leisurely stroll in the garden, but after leaving the city, it starts to feel strenuous.
Because there is no resistance for the Kongming Lantern to move forward in the air, but the same cannot be said for those on the ground. After leaving the city, it is all mountainous. In the direction where the Kongming Lantern floats, there are no roads at all in many places, and there are still many places that need to be detoured.
, and chasing up and down the mountain is not easy at all.
Soon, Du Tianwei, Cheng Zhengsheng, and Wu Sanjiang stopped chasing. Only Du Ziteng and a group of thugs followed Lin Tianqi and Liu Shengnan in front.
In pursuit of the Kongming Lantern, we went all the way out of the city, climbed several table mountains, and crossed several deep ditches across the country. After a few hours, we stood halfway up the mountain, and the group watched the Kongming Lantern slowly fall down the mountain.
"It should be down there, go down."
Lin Tianqi turned around and said to Du Ziteng behind him.
At this moment, Du Ziteng was still following them. Although he was panting and sweating profusely, he was obviously very tired. Behind him, the two dozen thugs were also sweating profusely on their faces and breathing heavily.
Lin Tianqi didn't feel too strenuous, and Liu Shengnan next to him looked relatively relaxed, but there was a slight sweat on his forehead.
After saying something to Du Ziteng, Lin Tianqi and Liu Shengnan took the lead again and chased down the mountain.
Du Ziteng gasped, it was really difficult for him, a rich young man, to walk on a mountain road like this, but he did not give up. Looking at Lin Tianqi and Liu Shengnan who had already taken the lead, he gritted his teeth.
"Follow up!"
The group followed again.
"No matter what I do later, don't say anything, just cooperate with me."
Walking in front, seeing that Du Ziteng and the others behind him were already some distance away from him and Liu Shengnan, Lin Tianqi lowered his voice and warned Liu Shengnan again in a voice that Du Ziteng and others behind him could not hear.
Liu Shengnan raised his head and looked at Lin Tianqi, his eyes flickered and he nodded.
