Chapter 299: Going deep into the Pei family
Soon, the door opened.
"Go inside, this will be your room from now on. A rough voice came from outside.
"Yes, sir. ”
The door was opened to the maximum, and a middle-aged man with an indifferent face was pointing inside, facing a young man in his twenties at most, and said in a commanding tone.
After the young man got down, he walked in and took a look, he couldn't help but be stunned, turned his head and asked, "My lord, what is in the room?"
"These are the things left by the last person who lived here, he is dead now, you can stay, you can throw them away, these things are at your disposal. ”
The middle-aged man finished speaking impatiently, and then left in a hurry, unwilling to stay longer.
The young man put down his luggage and scanned the furniture and supplies in the room.
Of course, with his strength of only condensing qi twice, it was impossible to see Lin Wu in front of him.
"Dead man's stuff is a bit of a bad thing, but it saved me money for an overhead, and I'm reluctant to throw it away. The young man laughed.
Lin Wu thought about it and felt that if he continued to stay here, there would be no other discoveries.
So he swaggered out through the open door.
Outside, there was a small hallway, barely enough for two people to walk side by side.
Looking at the middle-aged man who left in a hurry, Lin Wu thought for a moment and followed.
It can be seen that this middle-aged man has a certain status in the Pei family, and Lin Wu feels that this person has the cultivation of the refining realm, and if he reaches a few drops of refining liquid, Lin Wu will not be able to see through it directly, and it will only be exposed when he is fighting.
The middle-aged man didn't expect that there would be a tail behind the empty man.
He walked very fast, as if he was in a hurry, and he walked out of this fortress in three or two steps, and Lin Wu continued to follow him.
Along the way, there were constantly children of the Pei family, greeting him respectfully, but most of them he ignored.
Lin Wu walked for a while and found that he had been heading towards the exit of the wall.
"Is he leaving the castle?" Lin Wu couldn't help frowning when he thought about it, he thought that following him, he might find something, but if he wanted to leave the Pei family's location at this time, then he would definitely not continue to follow.
"Wait until the exit and take a look, waste a few minutes at most, and if he really leaves here at night, then give up tracking. Lin Wu thought so.
The two walked in a hurry, and a few minutes later, the middle-aged man came to the exit of the wall.
Now he was faster, almost trotting.
"Huh?" Lin Wu followed, and soon found the exit, at this time there was a black-robed man standing, similar to Lin Wu's current appearance, but he looked more rickety.
"Elder Lu, the patriarch has been waiting for you for a long time. The middle-aged man walked up to the black-robed man and whispered.
"Let's go, lead the way. The black-robed man's voice was hoarse, and Lin Wu guessed that he should be an old man.
I wanted to take a closer look, what the face of the black-robed man looked like under the hood.
"Wait!" the black-robed man had just taken two steps before he suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" the middle-aged man asked, looking back.
"I feel a faint aura wandering around me!" said the black-robed man, who startled Lin Wu.
Then he began to look around, an action that let Lin Wu know that he really noticed something.
So he hurriedly took a few steps back, keeping a certain distance from him.
At the same time, he was a little annoyed in his heart, he wanted to see the face of the black-robed man clearly just now, so he walked to a distance of one or two meters from the black-robed man, and he was very close.
Only then was something accidentally detected, although the "disappearing" combat skill would isolate his breath, but there was no absolute, if he cultivated to a person beyond a certain level of Lin Wu, plus Lin Wu himself got too close, it was still possible to be detected by the perception of others.
Lu Lao said and laughed, there are just the two of us here, empty, where does the breath of others come from. ”
The middle-aged man was also taken aback at first, and after inspecting the area, he felt that it was impossible for a third person to hide in the original empty place, so he was relieved.
Without feeling the faint breath again, the black-robed man was silent for a moment before he said, "Let's go." ”
The two walked into the doorway and walked deeper into the wall.
Seeing this, Lin Wu followed even though he was almost discovered just now.
Intuition told him that this black-robed man had an ulterior secret with the Pei family.
As the two people in front of him continued to go deeper, Lin Wu felt a little anxious in his heart.
He had been keeping an eye on how long the "vanishing" had lasted, and now he was almost at the limit of fifteen minutes, and as soon as the stealth effect disappeared, it was hard to say that it would not be discovered immediately.
Seeing that the two still had no intention of stopping, Lin Wu had no choice but to give up tracking for the time being.
I found a hidden place, and as soon as the effect of the combat skill ended, I immediately used it again.
A minute later, Lin Wu appeared in the position where he had left before, and the middle-aged man and the black-robed man had long since disappeared.
Lin Wu searched for their general direction and looked for it.
The fifteen-minute time limit was up again, and I had to find a place to do it all over again.
Twenty minutes later, he finally found them in a fortress.
The appearance of this fortress is not much different from all the other fortresses, and the reason why Lin Wu found it was because there was a person standing at the door of this fortress.
It was the middle-aged man, who seemed to be acting as a guard, clasping his hands to his chest, and his eyes were coldly checking the wind and grass around him.
But that couldn't stop Lin Wu from entering through the hole.
Soon, he found the black-robed man in a very spacious and richly furnished room, but by this time he had already lowered the hood above his head.
An expected old face was revealed.
When Lin Wu saw this old face, he couldn't help but be stunned, he recognized who this old man was.
In the information that Kanazawa gave him about the important members of the Ning family, there was an old man who was the same as this face.
Ning Lu, he has two identities, one is in the position of the Ning family, one of the high-level elders.
At the same time, his other identity is the younger brother of the previous patriarch and the uncle of the current patriarch Ning Yuangu.
Having these two identities gives him a pivotal position in the Ning family.
Among the many elders, Ning Zhuo could be compared to him.
At this time, in the room, in addition to him, there was also a No. 1 Pei family figure, and Lin Wu also knew him.
I believe that there are few people in the imperial capital who don't know the middle-aged man in front of him.
Pei Gou, the current patriarch of the Pei family, in the more than 20 years since he took office, the Pei family has ushered in the peak of the family, and among the four major power families, the Pei family has already confirmed the status of the first family.
Nowadays, it dares to fight with the royal family of the imperial capital, which shows the degree of expansion.
"These two people can completely represent the Pei family and the Ning family, and now that they are together, there must be a situation. Lin Wu concluded this.
