The so-called 'tribute from the local aristocracy' is actually a coffin.

If there was a modifier to be added to the front of this coffin, it wouldn't be 'magnificent', 'gold-trimmed silver' or anything like that.

It's just a very ordinary Western-style coffin, and if you really want to describe it, that's what it looks like.

Lin Ming, who had occupied the body of the unknown True Ancestor, finally walked in front of the coffin, bent down, and stretched out a white palm to press against the lid of the coffin.

"Hmm......"

There was no one in the main hall except Lin Ming, and the closed door of the hall was heavily guarded, which made the superior in gorgeous clothes have the illusion of being under house arrest.

This illusion was transformed into tiredness at the moment when Lin Ming's hand touched the lid of the coffin.

"Smack!"

As if he was born to know how to do it, Lin Ming lifted the lid of the coffin, turned over and lay in.

This body has been asleep for too long, and it is not possible to completely wake it up with a few vials of blood, and a good coffin is essential in the awakening ritual of the True Ancestor of the Blood Clan.

Lin Ming lay in like this, closed his eyes, and then the lid of the coffin that he lifted closed automatically.

The lights in the main hall were extinguished, and only a few lights remained on the top of the hall, as if to pray for someone's restful sleep.

……

"How's it going?Did Lord True Ancestor say anything?"

Lawrence Fried had barely come out of the hall when he was pulled by the sleeve of a man dressed in a shirt decorated with gold thread, which was clearly what Lawrence had called a 'local nobleman'.

His appearance is very handsome, even in the blood clan of handsome guys, he can mix in the middle and upper reaches, but at this moment, the flattering look on his face has destroyed this handsomeness.

"True Ancestor didn't say anything, just told me to step down. ”

Lawrence shook off the local nobleman's hand without a trace, and the expression on his face had returned to its previous indifference. Here, apart from the newly awakened True Ancestor in the main hall, he didn't need to show a good face to anyone. "Brother, do you have a few kind words for the younger brother?" The local nobleman was completely unimpressed by Lawrence's cold performance, and he knew that the tribute he offered was extremely precious.

A coffin made of a thousand-year-old gloomy wood has unspeakable benefits for any blood clan, as long as that true ancestor knows the goods and is good enough, then the future of this nobleman can be said to be bright.

"What I should say, I will naturally help you say that now that the True Ancestor has fallen asleep, let's go check the external security work. This operation to welcome back the True Ancestor has been known to the high-level people on the eastern side, although the Zhao family has fallen to the Dark Council, but they are unreliable, at most three or four days, they can no longer stay here. ”

Lawrence Road.

"That's right, I'll explain it right away...... It's just a pity that my Keynes family has been in business for centuries......"

The local nobleman pondered for a moment and then said, a hint of hatred in his eyes.

"When the recovery period of the True Ancestor is over, I will let those yellow-skinned monkeys return the humiliation that the Blood Clan has endured over the years!"

He clenched his fists secretly, then turned and walked into a dark path on the edge of the palace.

In the east, on the mainland, the sky will be bright.

Pumice Town, Hospital, a heavily guarded ward.

"Sorry, the patient was injured too badly and we couldn't get her back. ”

The doctor in the white coat was sweating all over his head, and there were a few strands of silver hanging from his wrinkled forehead.

He was the best doctor in town, having been practicing for almost forty years, and he didn't need to do it himself if he didn't have to.

However, on this night, a group of soldiers broke down the door of his house and forcibly pulled him out.

In the face of the fierce soldiers, he didn't dare to ask anything, so before entering the emergency room, he took the patient for granted, the 'soil emperor' of this town, the mayor of the town.

"Alas, I knew that I should have participated in the tour organized by the unit a few days ago, but I didn't expect that I would be famous in my life, and I would actually be stained with Huang Zhongguo's pickled goods, which is really not guaranteed. ”

For the mayor of Pumice Town, let alone an old doctor, even a person with a little backbone will not be welcome.

Because, in the fish and meat township of that guy named 'Huang Zhongguo', a few years ago, when he was just taking office, he dared to forcibly expropriate the farmers' own land, and even the mining industry He also got involved.

Today, several large mines around Pushi Town have been controlled by Huang Zhongguo's descendants, and those original mine owners, who are more fortunate and have more family backgrounds, have all left their hometowns, and the rest are living on the streets and miserable.

There is really no one who doesn't want to talk about his flesh.

However, they didn't dare to openly say what they thought, because Huang Zhongguo was not only greedy, but also ruthless.

The old doctor once saw a farmer who had been seized of his land and wanted to petition, and he went to buy a ticket the first day, and the next day he was sent to the funeral home, in the middle of the process, the old doctor gave him the final rescue, but the bones of the other party's whole body were broken. The old doctor is just an experienced doctor, not a god.

Since then, he has avoided Huang Zhongguo.

He sincerely cursed the devil to go to hell as soon as possible, and even when he entered the emergency room, he was already ready to 'eliminate harm for the people'.

However, to his surprise, the existence lying on the operating table that had a group of soldiers invited him in the middle of the night was not Huang Zhongguo.

Lying on the operating table was only an elderly woman, and the old doctor was sure that this woman had absolutely nothing to do with Huang Zhongguo.

Because he knew this woman.

"Aunt Wang from the orphanage?"

The old doctor expressed surprise, but after reading Aunt Wang's examination report, this surprise evolved into consternation.

Bleeding from internal organs, comminuted fractures of the bones in her back, shrapnel from her back was contained in a metal vessel, blood mixed with water, and in the hazy old doctor recognized the source of the shrapnel.

"Bombs, grenades, shells?"

The old doctor was even more shocked.

The old doctor did his best in this night's rescue, however, as said before, he was only a mortal with excellent medical skills, not an immortal.

"Hurry up and transfer the patient to the big hospital in the city, maybe there will be a rescue." ”

Although the old doctor who tried his best failed to bring Aunt Wang back from the line of death, he did not push her over that line, and he was as experienced as he was, and he barely managed to hang Aunt Wang's last breath.

Facing the soldiers who gathered around, the old doctor spread his hands.

He felt that since the group of people could knock on their door in the middle of the night for the sake of this old woman, it showed that they cared deeply about this woman's life.

However, before he could finish speaking, the leader pushed him away.

"Damn, I've been busy for most of the night, and if I can't save it, I'll say it early! Let the brothers wait here for most of the night, and you're looking for death?!"
