The provincial capital of Qilu Province.

At the gate of a vast and beautiful manor on the hill on the outskirts, more than a dozen guards lined up on both sides, constantly scanning the surroundings with vigilant eyes.

From the gate of the manor, a road leads down the hill to a national highway.

Just then, a luxury car drove down the road towards the mountains.

The moment they saw this car, the expressions of the dozen or so guards tightened, the hands holding the guns tightened, and the muzzles of the guns were slightly raised.

A guard stepped forward, stood in the doorway, and reached out to block the luxury car.

After seeing this guard, the luxury car immediately stopped, and then all the windows were opened, and the driver handed a small guard book, which checked the pass, and several other guards checked the situation in the car through the window.

There was a young man sitting in the car, his muscles tensed and his expression was extremely nervous under the scrutiny of several guards, and cold sweat continued to flow down his forehead.

"Hand us the box and check it out!" Just then, a guard pointed to the wooden box next to the young man.

"Ahh

The young man was stunned for a moment, then quickly picked up the box and handed it to the guard.

The guard opened the box and found that there was only one idol inside, and after carefully checking it and finding that there was no mechanism, he put the idol back into the box and handed it to the young man.

"You can go in!"

After checking it, the young man breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded to the guards with a smile on his face.

But after the inspection, the guards turned around and went back to continue to stand guard, ignoring the young man's courtesy.

"Mr. Xu, who lives here? They invited us over, and the inspection is still so strict, what is this called? As the car drove into the manor, the driver complained softly.

Hearing the driver's words, the face of the young man behind him changed: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!" ”

The driver quickly shrank his head. Drive honestly and stop talking.

Just a few steps along the road in the manor, two cars drove out from the front and back of the luxury car, one in front of the other and the other in the back.

"Don't panic, follow them!" The young man in the back commanded.

Under the restriction of two cars, the luxury car stopped in front of a villa, and then several people got off the front and rear cars, standing around the luxury car.

After inspecting the young men who got out of the car, one of them waved his left hand and signaled that the young man could enter the villa.

"Please come with us somewhere else to rest!" A guard said to the driver with a cold face.

The driver nodded hurriedly. I got out of the car and followed the guards towards other places.

The young man held the wooden box in front of the villa, rang the doorbell, and after a while, a middle-aged man walked over, saw the young man at the door, and looked at it slightly: "You are Xu Yugong?" Come on in! ”

Xu Yugong nodded, followed the young man into the villa, and just walked in. Xu Yugong's heart was beating rapidly.

In the living room, nine old men were sitting there, with faint smiles on their faces, talking from time to time.

Although they are all dressed in civilian clothes. The expression on his face was also very gentle, but Xu Yugong still felt a momentum like mountains and seas rushing towards him, which made him full of respect.

"You're Xiao Xu, right? You should have brought what your father had told you when you came here this time, right? An old man saw Xu Yugong standing at the door. Said with a chuckle.

"Oh, I brought, I brought."

Hear the old man's words. Xu Yugong hurriedly lifted the wooden box in his hand.

The middle-aged man who opened the door for Xu Yugong just now took the box in his hand and put it on the coffee table among several old people, and then carefully opened the box.

After seeing the contents of the box, the middle-aged man was shocked, and then he hurriedly took a few steps back and stood behind an old man, looking at his nose and nose and mouth, like a wooden clay sculpture.

"I've already seen a few of us, Master Xu hasn't come out yet, but he doesn't have the determination and momentum to break into the capital the night before." An old man looked at the idol in the box and said with a chuckle.

As soon as the old man's words fell, the statue in the wooden box emitted golden light, condensing in the air to form a figure, it was Xu Cheng.

"Xu Cheng has seen a few!"

"Master Xu, what we promised you has been done, now it's your turn!" An old man had a cold face, staring closely at the phantom of Xu Cheng in the air.

"What I promised you, I will naturally do."

As Xu Cheng spoke, he stretched out his left hand, and a burst of golden light poured out, condensing into a yin and yang jade book, and an extra brush appeared in his right hand.

The brush sketched on the Yin Yang Jade Book, and nine pillars of golden light descended from the sky, enveloping all nine old men.

In the golden pillar of light, the old man's body was rapidly becoming younger, and in just a few breaths, he was more than ten years younger.

"A few, in order not to let a few people be suspicious, for the time being, they can only strengthen to this Cheng dù. But please rest assured, as long as there is me Xu Chengcun zài for a day, a few people will live a long life, and they will never have to worry about the arrival of death. Xu Cheng looked at the nine old men with a chuckle.

"Birth, old age, sickness and death, there is a fixed number. Master Xu, I asked you to come today, in addition to asking you to fulfill your promise, I also want to discuss with you about the scope of the spread of faith. An old man said with a smile.

"What do you mean by how many?" Xu Cheng's face remained unchanged and looked at several old people.

Xu Cheng had long expected that there would be the current situation, although these old men hoped to prolong their lives with the help of his ability, they would definitely not allow him to become the second Lin Feng.

"The belief system and the country are not at all compatible, the land of a province is too heavy to be handed over to you, and the scope of faith must be narrowed! Qinghong County has a strong foundation of faith, how about the spread of this faith limited to Qinghong County? ”

Under Lin Feng's influence, Qinghong County's belief foundation is too strong, and instead of spending energy to make changes, it is better to assign it directly to Xu Cheng.

Xu Cheng pretended to be angry: "A few people who cross the river and demolish the bridge are a little too unsophisticated, right?" Even if you want to narrow down the scope of your faith, at least give me a few cities, right? ”

"Impossible, at most give you a few counties!"

Subsequently, the two sides began to argue, as the so-called sky-high asking price, sitting on the ground to pay back, after some discussion, Xu Cheng's belief range is enough to have two cities, one is Langya City, and the other is a neighboring city.

After the two parties agreed, Xu Yugong didn't stay long, left the villa with the wooden box, and left the manor by car.

At the same time, the father and son were also arguing in Xu Yugong's mind.

"Dad, Lin Feng's strength is so strong, when Lin Feng comes back, he knows that we betrayed him, I'm afraid he won't spare us!" Xu Yugong said worriedly. (To be continued......)
