Chapter 864 Clues

After receiving a circle of ridicule, I straightened my expression and began to seriously talk about what happened when I went back to the headquarters of the four major families this time, especially focusing on the situation of Zhang Lao.

I said it bluntly, so everyone looked at Lian Chen, who was not very good-looking.

As the backbone of the young people of the Lian family, most of the time her speech represents the meaning of the Lian family. This situation has gradually formed since Lian Chen became an adult, resulting in many people now believing that the head of the Lian family has handed over the power in his hands to her.

I'm afraid that even she thinks like this in her own heart, so it is smooth to arrange things at ordinary times, and it is rare to ask Lian Lao first.

Could it be that Lian Lao was dissatisfied with his rights being divided by Lian Chen, so this time he didn't inform her of all the things about the people of Daxia?

In a flash of inspiration, such an idea popped into my mind, but in the blink of an eye, I was dismissed by myself.

Because even I can see that Lian always deliberately delegates the power in his hands to Lian Chen little by little, so naturally he will not hide it from her for the sake of such interests.

Then, there is only one reason left, even Lao Ming knows that this matter is unreliable, but he still has to do it, and he doesn't want to implicate Lian Chen.

That's why it's carefully concealed.

That makes sense.

I looked at Lian Chen, whose face was dark, and it happened that she would also look at it at this time, the eyes of the two of us collided in mid-air, her eyes looked at me fixedly, and said word by word, "Zhang Yan, whether you believe it or doubt it, I don't know about this matter from beginning to end." ”

"If I had known that the patriarch had asked you to go back because he wanted to commit a crime, I would never have allowed this to happen. The number of years we have known each other is not short, and we have been born and died several times, and I ......"

Speaking of which, Lian Chen's eyes were slightly red, obviously not knowing how to justify himself, so he simply closed his mouth, stared at me with his neck crossed, and his tightly pursed lips trembled from time to time.

I sighed and soothed through the water mirror, "Of course I know, otherwise I wouldn't have come to inform you." I've seen all the battles just now, although the northwest is vast and extensive, there won't be so many imps and evil spirits in the same place. ”

As soon as the words fell, Ma Tianyu over there said, "So you're saying that it is very likely that the King of Hades already knows that there is a connection between this place and the Zhang family's sealed land?"

I nodded silently, and for a moment, everyone was silent.

Based on past experience, it would be difficult for Hades to detect the use of distractions to possess a living body, unless he himself exposed his horse's feet, or if the body was about to die.

Almost none of us took the initiative to find out, and almost all of them were revealed by Hades himself, who was too lazy to cover it up.

With such a thought, this possibility is really not small.

And I actually have another guess in my mind.

"The people of the Great Xia Kingdom are anxious to ask for the dragon jade pendant, it seems that they need it more than us, but it doesn't make sense. ”

I thought about it, but I still asked the doubts in my heart, there are many people and there is great power.

"You mean, the people of the Great Xia Kingdom want the destruction of the world?" Zhang Xu, who was standing at the back, frowned and said, his eyes full of disapproval.

I really want to kneel for this IQ, who would say that the people of the Great Xia Kingdom also mean this?

I just don't know what people are going to do, so I'll be careful to guard against it. I gave Zhang Xu a blank look and explained, "No, I mean, will the Panlong Jade Pendant have other functions, other than restarting a world. Or rather, the ability of the dragon jade pendant is not what we think it is at all. ”

"Oh? Your guess is a little strange, isn't it because we want to get this jade medal because we can have a handle in our hands to threaten Hades? After all, if this world is destroyed, then the underworld will no longer exist. ”

It was Chen Ming who spoke, this person has been extremely indifferent since Mu Ling's incident, and he rarely speaks unless he is in a good mood.

Naturally, I told the truth, "If you think about it, except for the beginning, when the king of Hades was desperate to get the jade pendant from our hands, there was no particularly big move in the future. It stands to reason that this jade pendant fragment is on my body, isn't it the easiest way to find me directly? Why do you want to take a long detour again and again?"

As I was talking, I felt a sound behind me, and the talisman placed in the eye of the array also trembled a little to the extent that it was invisible to the naked eye, if it weren't for my extra sensitivity to spatial fluctuations, I am afraid that I would not have been able to detect it for a while.

Seeing that the people on the other side of the water mirror were awakened by my words, and after talking nonsense, I put my mind outside the door.

The fingers shrunk in the sleeves moved slightly, and the talisman seal, which was the eye of the formation, quieted down and stopped moving.

I knew that someone must be outside the door, and I didn't move for so long, and I tried to break through the rune formation I arranged, indicating that the other party didn't want me to know at all.

It is commonly known as eavesdropping.

After reinforcing the talisman seal, I divided half of my mind and stayed here, and the other half continued to talk to Lian Chen about this discovery.

In fact, I would say that my leaf is not groundless.

According to normal thinking, since we have some fragments in our hands that can destroy the world, isn't Hades the most nervous?

He's going to have to snatch all the pieces to make sure we can't restart it, not let us hold it in our hands.

However, the people of the Great Xia Kingdom are very strange, so obsessed with the fragments of the dragon jade pendant, and they are still thinking about how to kill me.

If it weren't for my current realm improvement, I guess I would have been killed by the Five Elements Formation when I entered the gate.

It was a formation that would only be used against the most powerful ghosts, and it was quite mind-consuming.

I believe that in the current state of Lian Lao, if there is not a too major crisis, he will not put such a position. Besides, when I came in, I was indeed attacked by the formation.

Subconsciously raised his hand and touched his left shoulder, there was not much pain on it, but it left light gray marks on the skin.

This is the mark that has been burned by the fire element, and it will not disappear in a short time, even if it is a healing charm refined by me, it will take at least more than a week.

Forget it, it doesn't affect it anyway, at most it's just ugly.

Just when I was distracted, the people on the other side of the water mirror had already finished discussing, and they decided that they should be careful to check the little disciples in the team next, and not let the Hades have a chance.

Because everyone agrees that since Hades's attention is largely not on me, it means that his target is not necessarily the dragon jade pendant.

Maybe it was, but then it may have happened that caused Hades to change his goal.

And our guess now is that what Hades really cares about is the location of the branches behind each family.

"So, it's very likely that the Yama King has already been to the Yang family's ancestral hall?" I said, "If that's the case, there are two possibilities, one is that the Yama King is in the group of disciples we sent to search the Yang family's ancestral hall before, and the other is that the Yama King is one of the disciples we are staying there now. ”

When Hades appeared before, he used the body of a small disciple under my jurisdiction, and I am very sure that he did not send this little disciple to the Yang Family Ancestral Hall, because his strength is not enough to be able to act on his own without the group.

What's more, that kid has just been transferred from the headquarters of the four major families recently, and it is absolutely impossible for him to go to the Yang Family Ancestral Hall.

My words once again made Lian Chen and the others nervous, and they proposed to go back now and check the list of disciples who had been to the Yang Family Ancestral Hall, as well as the disciples who stayed there now.

Although several large-scale searches before and after failed to find anything from there, in order to prevent inconsequential ordinary people from entering by mistake, we still arranged layers of formations to guard it, and at the same time sent some junior disciples over.

After arranging the affairs for the next few days, I told them that it was possible that I would bring Zhang Lao over and come back to meet the people of the Great Xia Kingdom for a while after settling down.

Lian Chen and several people were more supportive of me doing this, especially I saw a deep guilt on Lian Chen's face. I signaled to her that she didn't have to feel so guilty, these decisions were made by Lian Lao and Chen Lao, and Ma Lao should have been involved before, but he just quit earlier.

It was more than half an hour intermittently, and it was not until the maintenance time of the water mirror was about to end that we ended the call.

I turned my head to look at the unmoving door, thinking that now was the time to solve this problem.

"I don't know if Lian Lao has something to say to me outside the door, please come in, we can study the problem of the formation together, you are a waste of time to ponder outside the door alone after all. ”

With a vicious wave of one hand, I opened the door to reveal Lian Lao, who was bent over to face me.

Apparently he was still figuring out how to break the formation while I spoke. In fact, the rune array laid by a high-level rune master is not something that ordinary array mages can solve.

I even began to suspect that the Zhang family and the Lian family seemed to be from the same sect, but one used magic weapons to arrange the formation, while the other used talismans, relying more on their own strength.

“...... You're a bit smarter now. Lian Lao didn't feel embarrassed at all, straightened up and walked in with his hands behind his back, "We are all in order for this world to be balanced and orderly, no matter what, we are all in the same boat." ”

"Ha, Lian Lao's words are so funny, wasn't it your Lian family who betrayed us first?" I sneered and let the door open.

"Hmph, this matter is entirely up to me, and even Chen she doesn't know anything. ”

Sure enough, Lian Lao wanted to protect Lian Chen. But since this was the case, why did he rashly agree to the request of the Great Xia Kingdom in the first place.

I couldn't figure this out, so I simply asked. Who knew that this old guy was silent when I asked him, and his two gray eyebrows were tangled together, as if it was difficult to answer.

Could it be that there is something hidden?

As soon as this thought appeared, I felt that there must be a play, and even the old man's expression was much gentler.
