After hearing the old man's words, the expressions of everyone present had become extremely ugly.

No one thought that the truth of this matter would be like this.

Lin Chen's brows tightened, and he slowly spoke, "I have a few questions. ”

"Say it."

The old demon clan monk glanced at Lin Chen, and his tone was calm.

Lin Chen frowned and slowly spoke, "Why did those demons condense so much death qi and resentment power? ”

Hearing this, the old demon clan monk smiled and said, "Don't you understand? ”

"In Yingzhou, what is it that is absolutely not allowed to appear, and it relies on the power of death and resentment?"

"Wonderland Abyss."

Without waiting for Lin Chen to speak, Wan Qian slowly spit out these four words.

Lin Chen didn't know about some of the taboos in Yingzhou, but he did know the name of this Wonderland Abyss.

The Abyss of Wonderland is one of the Seven Jedi of Yingzhou.

Of the seven Jedi in Yingzhou, except for the most mysterious and terrifying Gates of Hell, the remaining six can be summoned by manpower.

To the average person, every Jedi is a terrifying thing, but careerists and conspirators don't think so.

In their view, danger is as good as opportunity.

Although it is not clear why the demons want to awaken the abyss of Wonderland, it is obvious that it is also linked to interests.

Thinking of this, Lin Chen's face gradually became ugly.

Although he didn't know much about the Wonderland Abyss, Lin Chen also knew how terrifying this place was.

As one of the Seven Jedi, this Abyss of Wonderland is a true place of death.

Even if you are an emperor, there is no possibility of survival when you enter this Jedi.

It is rumored that this wonderland abyss was the burial place of ancient gods in ancient times.

And because of this, there are many speculations on the land of Yingzhou, some people say that the deepest part of the abyss of Wonderland is buried with the body of the ancient god.

That's a true god, an existence that is beyond the rules of this world, and it can even be said that it is the creator of the rules.

They are already completely beyond people's cognition, and they are full of treasures.

You can guess how attractive the burial place of an ancient god is.

If you think about it, the reason why the demons are so concerned about this place is probably because of that ancient god.

Lin Chen thought that this was just some old stories in a small city, but he didn't expect that there was such a huge conspiracy behind this.

Retracting his thoughts, his gaze fell on the old man in front of him, Lin Chen frowned and said, "So, when this agreement was signed back then, did Shangguan Mingdao know what those demons wanted to do?" ”

"Does it matter?"

The old man glanced at Lin Chen, and there was a strange light floating in his eyes.

For others, this may not be important, but for Lin Chen, it is very important.

Whether or not you know this directly determines whether Shangguan Mingdao should die or not.

After all, if he didn't know this, then Shangguan Mingdao could only be regarded as a violent city lord at most, at least, his starting point was still good.

It is to protect this hill and pond city.

But if you know the ultimate purpose of the demons, and still choose to agree to this agreement, the situation will be completely different.

He can even be regarded as an accomplice of the demons.

The old man glanced at Lin Chen deeply before he slowly spoke: "I can only tell you that the demons have not mentioned the truth of this matter, but do you really think that a thing that we can all see through, Shangguan Mingdao, who is as scheming as the sea, can't see it?" ”

As soon as these words fell, the faces of everyone present had already changed color.

The old man was right.

It is impossible for Shangguan Mingdao not to guess the thoughts of the demons.

And he can obviously agree to this agreement first, and after saving Qiutan City, he will explain this matter.

However, he did not do this, but kept the secret for fifty years.

In the past 50 years, more than a million people have died because of him.

This number is enough to be jaw-dropping.

Subconsciously clenched his fists, Lin Chen thought that he had truly seen the darkness of this world, but after all, he still underestimated people's hearts.

"I've told you everything I know, you can choose not to believe it, but you can go and check what Shangguan Mingdao has done in the past fifty years, it's not very difficult to really investigate it, it depends on whether you have the courage to do so."

"My mission has been accomplished."

"And just now, I found the belongings of my poor old friend in this place, and wanted to come to his body, and he was also sent here."

"This is my best destination."

"At the very least, I can go to Yellow Springs with that poor old friend of mine."

"No regrets for the rest of your life."

His gaze was fixed on Lin Chen and the others, and the old man slowly spoke, "You can go and do what you think is right." ”

The old man waved his hand, clutching the scales of an armor tightly in his hand, and he slowly walked towards the huge abyss.

Resolutely jumped down, when the flames were rushing, this old demon cultivator who had also ridden his horse and whipped the world, after all, followed in the footsteps of his old friend and went to death.

Looking at everything in front of him, Lin Chen subconsciously clenched his fists.

The world is undoubtedly extremely dark, but even in this endless darkness, you can still see the light that is enough to exhibrate.

Perhaps, this is the charm of this world.

"Let's get out of here first."

Retracting his thoughts, Lin Chen's gaze fell on the people in front of him, and when the words fell, everyone nodded.

After a lot of effort, they left.

As the old demon cultivator said, this place is full of dangers, and there are too many silver-armored soldiers hidden in the exits of the huge cave, and if you are not careful, you may fall into the danger of death.

But fortunately, they managed to escape from this side, and finally came to a small town only a dozen miles away from Qiutan City.

The Silver Armor Army had already searched here, and they would never have thought that Lin Chen and the others would return to their noses again.

Sitting in the tavern, Lin Chen, Wan and Shi Yan and the others were a little silent, and no one took the lead in breaking this rare peace.

Forgetting how long it had been, Lin Chen finally slowly spoke, "What are your plans?" ”

Shi Yan gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Lin, and Brother Wan Qi, I know it's not good for me to say this at this time, but ......"

Shi Yan's expression was complicated, and after taking a deep breath, he slowly spoke: "We are just a group of ordinary people, and we just want to live the life of ordinary people when we come to Qiutan City, and now we can't stay in Qiutan City, we originally thought that we could avenge our brother, but when this matter is investigated, we don't know who to take revenge on." ”

"We don't have your lofty ideals, and we can't control any kind of demons, city lords, and other conspiracies, so we just want to leave this place."

It can be seen that Shi Yan is very entangled.

Lin Chen smiled when he heard this, he reached out and patted Shi Yan's shoulder and said, "I can understand." ”

"When are you going to leave?"

"The sooner the better, this place, we don't want to stay for a minute."

Hearing this, Lin Chen picked up the wine glass and said, "There is nothing to give, after drinking this glass of practice wine, I hope you can find a peaceful life." ”

Shi Yan's face finally showed a smile, and the rest of the mercenaries also raised their wine glasses, and several people spoke together: "Brother Lin, Brother Wan Qi, the mountains are high and the road is far away, let's meet again in the rivers and lakes." ”

Everyone drank the wine in their glasses and left the tavern directly.

The wine table, which was still popular just now, fell silent in a blink of an eye, and only Lin Chen and Wan Qian were left here.

Lin Chen's gaze fell on Wan Qian's body.

"What are your plans?"

Wan Qian frowned and said: "Confucian students have always taken it as their responsibility to help the society and help the world. ”

"I can't control what others choose, but I myself will inevitably choose the answer that I think is the most correct."

"In my eyes, if you don't care about this situation, then you can't be considered a Confucian student."

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Lin Chen's face.

"Still."

Wan Qian frowned and said, "After all, this time the matter is too big, and it is impossible to solve it just by relying on you and me." ”

"So I think it's time for me to seek the power of the academy."

Lin Chen nodded and said, "Then you should be careful on the road." ”

Wan Qi nodded and said, "I will try to arrive before the next full moon night comes, and during this time, I hope that Brother Lin can live well." ”

Lin Chen nodded and said, "Don't worry, my life is very hard, and there will be no problems." ”

Wan Qian drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp, and then said: "Without further ado, after this glass of wine, I will set off immediately." ”

"Take care all the way, I'm waiting for your good news."

After drinking the wine in the cup, Wan Qian also left, and only Lin Chen was left on the wine table.

After taking a deep breath, he adjusted himself to the best of his condition.

Now that everything that needs to be done has been done, the next thing that needs to be faced is the real crisis.

Naturally, he would not firmly believe that Shangguan Mingdao was a heinous sinner because of the old demon cultivator's words, so in Lin Chen's opinion, the top priority was to determine whether the old demon cultivator's words were true.

After taking a deep breath, his face gradually became solemn, and just as Lin Chen was about to return to Qiutan City in disguise, he suddenly heard a deafening sound coming from a distance.

His face changed slightly, he got up directly, the residents of the town outside the window fled frantically, the doors of every house were closed, and the owner of the tavern also came to Lin Chen's side and said in a panic: "Guest, something happened, you leave quickly, I am also going to close the door." ”

Lin Chen's brows tightened.

Who will be the person who will come?
