Chapter 235: You Are Sure You're Here
From the outside, the whole Jing clan is still very majestic.
There is really that kind of Xuanmen family, living far away in the mountains, and not being disturbed. It's daytime now, it's not good to go up, I'm afraid that Jingge and they will find out in advance and escape! So we just found a random rock at the bottom of the hill and stayed for a while, and by the way, we surveyed the surrounding terrain.
The place where they are is is right in the middle of the intersection of two mountain peaks, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If you want to get in, you can only enter it from the concave mountain range in front of you. If you go around the place, you have to go around a long way, and the faceless ghost came back to me after a circle, and said, "There should be a lot of talisman arrays in the back mountain, and I feel that it is very dangerous inside when I pass by, maybe they have built some escape passage there...... Shall I go there and guard it? ”
I shook my head and looked in the direction of that side. It was getting dark, and the light was slowly shining on it, making the whole building more mysterious. I said slowly, "No! She did everything she could to bring us here, not just to bring us here to have fun. ”
Now that it was almost dark, Hai Lao told us a little bit, and then prepared his things and went up.
This mountain doesn't look high, but on the way up the mountain, there are rune arrays all the way, if no one leads it, you need to crack it one by one, which is really troublesome. Hai Lao took out a talisman folded like a thousand paper cranes, and then burned the paper with a mouthful of words. After all the fire was burned, a thousand paper cranes really flew out of this talisman, and they flew up the mountain.
Hai Lao explained, "This is a messenger, in the early years, I had a friendship with the second elder of the Jing clan, and this messenger was given to me by him. Burn the signal, and when he sees it, he will send down to meet us. Don't worry, I made it clear in my letter to him that he should keep a low profile. ”
"Second Elder?"
I looked at him suspiciously, and while waiting for someone to pick him up, he gave me a general explanation of the current situation of the Jing family.
It turns out that in their Jing clan, there is an unwritten rule. It is not the heir who really holds the real power, but the ...... The elders behind it! Among them, the Great Elder is honored, and there are six elders in total. As for Jing Ge's heir, he is just a pawn that they manipulate on the surface!
Whatever you want to do must be approved by the Elders before you can do it.
And Jing Haoran's father is the Great Elder! It's no wonder that Jing Ge will be supported, instead of Jing Haoran himself as the heir. It's completely thankless...... "puppet emperor"!
Come to think of it, the status of this Jing Ge in the Jing clan should not be as high as imagined!
Thinking that their people should have almost come down, I let the Faceless Ghost, the Left General, and the Qingsha all hide.
On the surface, it was just me standing with Shan'er, the Flame King, and Gege.
Not long after they went inside, a man came out of the jungle. Dressed up, like a medicine boy, wearing a plain white robe, with the word "Jing" written in large strokes in the center of the robe. When he saw us, he hurriedly greeted us, respectfully saluted Hai Lao, and after a few words of greeting, he led us up.
On the way, Gege and I inquired about the situation.
Got several definite messages......
One, it is...... Jing Ge did come back last night! It's just that I've been injured and now I'm locked up in my room to heal. They couldn't get close to the medicine boys, so the rest didn't know much about it.
The second is that the timing of our arrival coincided with the annual selection competition of their Jing clan...... The outstanding clansmen of the other branches can stay in their own house if they pass the competition. After that, two elders will also be decided to fill the vacant seats of the previously dead elders......
As I listened, I couldn't help but sneer......
Not at all convinced, this will be a coincidence! I'm afraid that Jing Ge suddenly came out and did these things inexplicably, eight times out of ten. Nine has something to do with this selection contest!
During the chat, we entered the gate of the Jing clan and also met the old friend of the elder, the second elder. People are still more talkative, but only for Hai Lao, and for a few of our juniors and the like, it is a nodding friend. In the arrangement of accommodation, there is also a strong view of the door.
As soon as he left, the Flame King closed the door and investigated. His expression was slightly solemn, "Under this underground, there is a force, which is very extraordinary." ”
I was a little surprised, "Is it Jing Haoran's father, the Great Elder?" ”
He shook his head, a little disdainful. "That man's strength is vain, and there is nothing to be afraid of. But this guy underground is a bit of a Taoist. ”
"In that case, we can't act rashly?"
The Flame King sneered, "It's a bit of a way, but it's ...... to the deity Not yet a threat. ”
"So what do we do now?"
"I'll meet her for a moment."
So Gege was left in the room and asked Hai Lao to help take care of it, and we took advantage of the dead of night to sneak out of the room with Shan'er in our arms. The Flame King helped me hide my figure, and we went all the way to it, but no one was found.
Although he is the head of the puppet, the place where Jing Ge lives is still relatively luxurious. The exterior looks quaint and charming, and there are their clansmen patrolling around from time to time. After the patrol left, the Flame King took me and went straight through the back window.
He was dashing, but I didn't have his ability after all, so I could only creep in.
After entering, he followed lightly. Jing Ge was in the lobby, sitting cross-legged. In front of her, several spirit tablets were enshrined...... After the Flame King glanced at me, he rushed to Jing Ge's back, bent his fingers into claws, and grabbed Jing Ge's head by surprise.
But...... After being caught, Jing Ge didn't say a word, not even resisting, and was dragged by the Flame King like a rag doll.
I looked strange, and Shan'er leaned into my ear and said, "Mother, this woman is so cunning, she only has a spirit in her body......"
I was stunned for a moment and walked out with Shan'er in my arms. The Flame King's face was a little gloomy, and he lifted her up. By the faint light of the candle, I could see what she was like now. Sure enough, as Shan'er said, she is ...... now It's just an empty shell, with a wooden expression, and there is not even a focal length in the eyes.
She put another one!
I vomited blood angrily, "Now that there is only one soul, has her remaining soul escaped?" ”
The Flame King narrowed his eyes slightly, "With her strength, the soul can't escape far." ”
As he spoke, he threw Jing Ge in front of Shan'er. Shan'er stretched out her hand, nodded on Jing Ge's eyes, and then asked in a milky voice, "In my name, in your words, say, where are you!" ”
After he finished speaking, Jing Ge's whole body seemed to stiffen, and after his eyes rolled, he seemed to have regained some senses. Looking at us, a strange smile appeared on his cold face. "You're here!"
That smile, how to look at it, how to make people angry.
I slapped her in the face, "Where did you hide Grandpa Wang's body?" ”
She smiled, raised her hand, and pointed to the bed in the room. The Flame King jumped and got there, touched everywhere, and came across a mechanism, and after opening it, there was a secret door under the bed. The Flame King immediately made a decision and jumped down with us in his arms. It's not deep behind this secret door, but it's darker when you go inside.
Behind this secret door is a room. And one of Jing Ge's souls was floating in this room, and when he saw us coming, he was not afraid and went back into his body. Shan'er snorted, "Only one soul and one soul returned, what about the others?" ”
Jing Ge directly ignored this sentence, and after returning to his body, he looked at us with burning eyes. "I can hand over his body, or I can take you to find the Sansheng Stone, but ...... I have two conditions, one, kill the person behind this door. Second, help me win the position of Great Elder! ”
As she spoke, she slowly looked at the Flame King, the light in her eyes being exactly the same as when she first met the Flame King. "With your strength, these are all gestures."
Sure enough!
It's really a road to know the horsepower, and the people will see it for a long time! I knew that she was not at ease from beginning to end, but I didn't expect that she had aimed at the ability of the Killing Flame King from the beginning, and at that time, she said that she wanted the Killing Flame King to marry her, and I thought that she fell in love with the Killing Flame King at first sight.
Scold...... Outcome...... Where is it because of what love? Clearly comes from utilization!
Use the Flame King to help her achieve both!
