Five days ago, several people died in Linjiazhuang.

And these people are not ordinary deaths, but all of them have become dried corpses, as if the blood of the whole body has been sucked up, and the entire Linjiazhuang is in a panic, and some people want to leave the village to report the crime.

However, the owner showed up and suppressed the matter, saying that the matter would be resolved soon.

But for several days in a row, several people died tragically every day and turned into dried corpses, and the people below were already panicked, so Lin Yuan took advantage of this time to go out with the steward to purchase materials and come to the county government to report the case.

"Are you the steward of Linjiazhuang?"

After listening to what Lin Yuan said, Gu Qing looked at the middle-aged man who was dressed extraordinarily on the side.

"Back to the adult, the villain Lin Baoquan is the steward of Linjiazhuang. ”

Seeing Gu Qing asking, the middle-aged man in extraordinary clothes immediately bowed down and said.

"Lin Baoquan, is what Lin Yuan said true?"

Gu Qing asked.

"Nonsense, Lin Yuan is complete nonsense. Lin Baoquan immediately denied it: "Five days ago, Lin Yuan had a serious illness, the high fever did not go away, and after waking up, he began to talk nonsense, what Lin Jiazhuang has several tragic deaths every day, turning into dry corpses, it is completely nothing." ”

"Yes. Gu Qing said lightly: "Whether there is this matter or not, I will go to Linjiazhuang to investigate, if what Lin Yuan said is true, then you are deliberately concealing it and not reporting it, if it is a demon and evil ghost, it is okay, if there are left-handed cultivators in Linjiazhuang who kill people and practice, then you who know will not be able to escape the involvement." ”

"Impossible, how can there be a Left Dao cultivator in Lin Jiazhuang. ”

Lin Baoquan would never admit this.

No one wants to have anything to do with left-path cultivators who practice murder.

"If you don't tell the truth, you know the consequences. ”

Gu Qing's eyes widened, and a powerful aura on his body pressed towards Lin Baoquan.

Lin Baoquan had just practiced some superficial fist and foot kung fu, at most he was a martial artist in the Strength Realm, and in the face of Gu Qing's burst of momentum, he naturally couldn't bear it, and beads of sweat appeared on his face.

"My lord, that Lin Yuan is indeed nonsense. ”

Beads of sweat appeared on Lin Baoquan's face, but he still gritted his teeth and denied it.

"Whether it's true or not, I'll go to Linjiazhuang to investigate. Gu Qing said coldly, then turned to Liu An, the county commander in the top position, and said, "Lord Liu, this matter will be handed over to my Jingxian Division." ”

"Okay, then this matter will be handed over to the Jingxian Division, and the relevant documents will be sent to the Jingxian Division later. ”

Liu Xianling nodded.

Gu Qing took Lin Yuan and left the county office.

Lin Baoquan followed behind, and said bitterly: "My lord, you have to believe me, this Lin Yuan is really talking nonsense, Lin Jiazhuang is very good up and down, there is no dry corpse at all, don't bother your lord to run away." ”

Gu Qing ignored Lin Baoquan and walked all the way to the outside of the county office.

"Tell me, what's going on in Linjiazhuang?"

Walking outside the county office, Gu Qing turned around suddenly, his eyes were deep and dark, and his voice seemed to contain a magical power.

Lin Baoquan's eyes suddenly became blurred, and after hearing Gu Qing's voice, Lin Baoquan immediately told everything he knew.

Linjiazhuang, the previous generations are tomb robbers, it started by robbing tombs, and after several generations of efforts, it has accumulated a lot of wealth, which has established Linjiazhuang, with a population of hundreds.

However, there are only dozens of real heirs of the Lin family, and the rest are slaves and miscellaneous servants purchased by Lin Jiazhuang.

On the surface, Linjiazhuang has done legitimate business, but secretly there is still a tomb robbery team composed of direct children, and when Linjiazhuang excavated a cemetery five days ago, it seemed that he had found an amazing ruin.

But those children of the Lin family were in the ruins, but the ban was touched, many people died in it, and only a few people ran back, that is, from that time on, people died every night, turning into dried corpses, as if there were ghosts to haunt them.

The owner of Linjiazhuang, in order not to expose the ruins, ordered that the matter should not be disseminated.

"In five days, your Lin Zhuang Master didn't solve the ghost thing hidden in the shadows?" Gu Qing continued to ask, "Just let the ghost thing take the lives of one after another?"

"The owner of the village has a son, Lin Bufan, who worshiped under the Beiyue Sword Sect, and the owner originally wanted to explore the ruins by himself, but when he thought of the ghosts in the Zhuangzi, he was worried that there were still ghosts in the ruins, and the ghosts in the Zhuangzi also needed to be solved, so he wrote a letter to his son in the Beiyue Sword Sect, asking Lin Bufan to report the matter and let the disciples of the Beiyue Sword Sect come to explore, so that Lin Bufan would have a benefit. Lin Baoquan said: "However, the Beiyue Sword Sect is not in Changshan County, it will take about five or six days to come and go, calculate the time, and it should be there today." ”

"Where's that ruin?"

Gu Qing immediately asked.

"The people who explored the ruins are dead, and now only the owner knows the location of the ruins. ”

Lin Baoquan replied.

Under Gu Qing's ecstasy, Lin Baoquan knew everything and said everything.

"It seems that I still have to go to Linjiazhuang. ”

Gu Qing returned to Jingxian Division, explained to Zhao Xiang and the others, and then took Lin Baoquan and Lin Yuan to Linjiazhuang.

......

Thirty miles away from Changshan County, there is a big mountain called Lintang Mountain.

At the foot of this Lintang Mountain, there is a small village called Linjiazhuang.

The first generation of owners who established Linjiazhuang was called Lin Tang, so this mountain was called Lin Tang Mountain.

Linjiazhuang is a small village, and every household is very close to each other, just like a whole.

In the center of Linjiazhuang, there is a mansion that is more luxurious than the rest of the family, which is where Lin Chaohai, the owner of Linjiazhuang, lives.

"Extraordinary, you're finally here. ”

In the hall of the forest house, a man with half-white hair sat above.

This person is Lin Chaohai, the owner of Linjiazhuang, although he is not yet fifty years old, he is old.

Practicing martial arts can strengthen the body and prolong life, and those who are advanced in martial arts can live for hundreds of years.

Lin Chaohai himself also has the cultivation of the blood coagulation realm, and his qi and blood are still at the peak when he is less than fifty years old, and he will only enter a period of weakness after he is sixty years old, and he can live a long life under normal circumstances.

But Lin Chaohai, as the owner of Linjiazhuang, almost everything is pressed on him alone, and he spends too much energy on mundane things, so he will show his old state in advance.

But fortunately, his son Lin Bufan's martial arts talent surpassed him, and all the resources of Lin Jiazhuang were spent on Lin Bufan, which also allowed him to successfully worship under the Beiyue Sword Sect, and he was only in his early twenties and had already broken through to the inner qi realm.

"Father, this is Senior Brother Jiang Feng, the eldest disciple of Shizun, and his cultivation has reached the peak of the Inner Qi Realm. ”

In the conference hall, in addition to Lin Chaohai and Lin Bufan, there were two sword-wielding young men, Lin Bufan pointed to one of the young swordsmen wearing a white shirt and introduced.
