The side hall of Jiling Castle.

Ling Zihuan found that the city lord's gaze fell on him, the light slowly flashed in his cloudy eyes, and his two hands grabbed his arms tightly, and he couldn't help but feel a tightening.

"Yes!"

After hearing this, the city lord was stunned at first, and then his face changed slightly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his heart fluctuated.

"Providence, providence!"

Seeing the city lord's strange appearance, Ling Zihuan seemed to feel that cracking the Soul Hanging Ladder was a very unexpected thing for him. Moreover, the city lord was emotional, and his face showed an irrepressible look of excitement.

The city lord looked at Ling Zihuan again and asked, "What's that...... The coffin underneath the Soul Ladder...... Are you open?"

Speaking of the coffin, the fat man was shocked, and he couldn't imagine that the lonely dark green coffin was really a bit famous.

"What's the matter, we are just passing by, how dare we move!" Ling Zihuan thought that the city lord was afraid that he would disturb the good dreams of his predecessors, so he hurriedly explained.

"Good job, good job," the city lord seemed to smile, his old face was full of wrinkles, like dry grass and trees lifeless, "such a wise and courageous, righteous and loyal person, it is really rare!"

Ling Zihuan didn't know why the city lord suddenly came with such a series of praises, but now was not the time to speak, this was the place where the Ten Thousand Hidden Halls gathered, and it was very likely that they would be found.

"City Lord, let's not talk about this yet, come with us!"

Ling Zihuan's hand just wanted to catch the city lord, but he pushed it away, and then his body trembled, swaying, like a devastated dead leaf.

"Why are you doing that?"

"I don't have long to live, but there are some things I have to explain......"

Ling Zihuan was taken aback, and hurriedly ran behind the city lord, "Then I'll give you some true qi first, and I will definitely be able to hold out for a while." ”

"It's useless, they want me to die, where will they show mercy, you don't have to waste your strength on the old decay. ”

The fat man sighed and said solemnly: "I have just seen it, the demon poison will attack the heart immediately after taking it, and then penetrate deep into the bone marrow, and it will not be able to return to the sky." ”

"Dead fatty, you can't say something nice!" Ling Zihuan shouted at the fat man.

The city lord pulled Ling Zihuan's arm with trembling hands, looked at him, and said slowly: "Child, I thought that Jiling City was finished in my hands, but when I saw you, I saw the hope of the revival of Jiling City. ”

Ling Zihuan was stunned, not knowing what the city lord meant by this.

"I want to pass on the position of the city lord of Jiling City to you, I hope you don't shirk!" the city lord said, coughing a few times, a pair of silent eyes flashing with light.

When Ling Zihuan heard this, he was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "This ...... How can this be done, how can I be the lord of this city?"

"The old man has a good eye. Child, do you know? The soul ladder in the mausoleum is strange and abnormal, no one dares to defy the law, and no one can crack the mystery, you are the first person!"

Ling Zihuan continued to excuse himself: "Even so, can it ...... The position of the city lord is the most important thing in Jiling City, where can I be competent, the city lord will choose someone else. ”

It's not that Ling Zihuan doesn't dare to be the lord of this city, it's just that he understands the drawbacks of this, and he is an outsider, which will inevitably provoke criticism from ministers and civilians. Moreover, he still has a lot of work to accomplish, and he really doesn't want to be subjected to such a big task.

"Since you can crack the Soul Ladder, you're really smart. And you can avoid the guards in the city, go deep into here, and think about cultivating well. And save our Jiling City from the water and fire, you are the great benefactor of our Jiling City! Our Jiling City has always relied on people who are deeply strategic, brave and righteous, so you are very suitable!"

Ling Zihuan stood up, faced the city lord sideways, and said indifferently: "I think at this moment, Xuanqing Sect almost knows that Jiling City is occupied by the demon clan, and should soon send someone to rescue the danger in the city." I promised Zimu, and now I can promise you the same, I will do my best to drive the demon clan out of Jiling City. ”

"As for the position of the lord of the city, I really ......"

Before the words fell, the city lord knelt down with a "plop", his body staggered, and he almost didn't fall.

I saw that his face was like frost, and the old tears were full of tears, and he begged: "I beg you as an old man, for the sake of the people of this city, and for the sake of peace in this Middle Earth." This is the greatest wish of the old man on his deathbed, if you take it, I will die, and I will be blinded......"

As soon as he finished speaking, the city lord's body shook, and with a "poof" sound, a column of blood spurted out in front of him, sprinkled on the floor, like a defeated blood-red rose, and then his eyes closed slightly and fell to the ground.

"City Lord!"

Ling Zihuan immediately went over to help, but saw that his face was pale and angry, and it seemed that he couldn't support it anymore.

The city lord's chest fell together, a wisp of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, he slowly opened his eyes, looked at Ling Zihuan's handsome face, and said in a trembling voice: "Child, you are still ...... Can't you promise me?"

"I'm ......" Ling Zihuan didn't know how to speak when he saw the appearance of the city lord.

The fat man on the side really couldn't stand it, so he let out a long breath, touched Ling Zihuan with his thick and fat arm, and whispered, "Hey, everyone else is like this, you still refuse?"

Ling Zihuan was stunned, took a deep breath, and immediately looked at the city lord's cloudy eyes.

"Okay, I promise you!"

After hearing this, a smile suddenly appeared on the city lord's face, and he hurriedly said a few "yes", then took out a white jade wrench from the thumb of his right hand and put it on Ling Zihuan's right thumb.

"This is a token of the successive city lords of Jiling City, and he never leaves him. From now on, you are ...... The twenty-first lord of Jiling Castle. ”

As he spoke, the city lord coughed a few more times, red blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and his face was haggard, like white paper.

"With this white jade wrench, the city is ...... Ministers of the Inner Court, generals of the army, and commoners...... will be at your command. Are you so ...... With deep courage and the assistance of loyal ministers in the city, we will definitely be able to revitalize the city of Jiling. As he spoke, his eyes were hot, and two lines of tears flowed out.

Ling Zihuan felt a pain in his heart, and said in a hoarse voice: "I, Ling Zihuan, will definitely live up to the trust of the old city lord!"

"And one more little thing......"

"Old city lord, please speak, I will do my best!"

"I have few children under my knees, only one daughter, named Mo Xiaoqian, let me ...... Secure. His eyes were slightly closed, he was already tired, coupled with the spread of demon poison in his internal organs, his heart was like an insect and ant bite, extremely painful, and he could still say a few words at the moment, which was the biggest limit of his body.

"Don't worry, the old city lord, I will definitely take good care of her, I don't know where she is now?"

"When the demon clan invaded Jiling City, I had asked someone to secretly send her to Oolong Town, twenty miles east of the city, in a floating inn. ”

"Well, I wrote it down!" Ling Zihuan nodded.

The city lord smiled knowingly, remembering that the flesh and blood were separated, and he couldn't even see his daughter's face before he died, he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, his face froze slightly, and he looked at Ling Zihuan again.

"The little girl is sixteen years old, and if you don't dislike it, you ...... If the little girl can marry a young hero like you, then I can also laugh at Jiuquan, cough cough cough!"

"Ah......" After Ling Zihuan heard this, he was immediately stunned.

After he calmed down, his heart was still pounding, and a white figure inadvertently appeared in his mind, as if he saw Ruan Qixue in front of him, smiling lightly at himself.

The fat man couldn't help but smile secretly on the side, he couldn't imagine that it was not enough for the city lord to send the city, and he wanted to send his daughter.

Seeing Ling Zihuan's surprised look, the city lord avoided his gaze, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he sighed, waved his hand and said:

"That's it, it's not hard for you. ”

The lord of the city closed his eyes, his lips twitched, and every time he spoke, it seemed that it took a lot of effort.

"Don't worry, even if I can't be Ling Ai's lifelong dependence, I will wait until the dust settles in Jiling City to help her find a wishful husband in the city. ”

"In that case, then I will entrust Jiling City and the little girl to you, and I will be relieved!"

It didn't take long for the demon poison in the main body of the city to attack, and his whole body convulsed, vomited out a mouthful of red and purple blood, and closed his eyes peacefully.

The fat man stood up and asked, "What now?" will his body be left here, or shall we take it out?"

"Of course it's taken out!" Ling Zihuan said indifferently.

"You tease me, it's your business, then you can carry it, carry a dead corpse and climb the wall, hehe!"

Ling Zihuan glanced at the fat man angrily, and the grains in his heart were all grains, because at this moment, he suddenly felt that his shoulders had become so heavy, and the entrustment of so many people and the hopes of so many people were all in his body.

Four years ago, my father entrusted him with a deathbed to learn to cultivate and avenge the village, but four years later, the barren village was the same, a fire that year, and a disaster in the village seemed to be just a dream, leaving only in his mind.

What is it to use the barren village to set up a shocking puzzle on yourself?

In the ant cave in the Void Enchantment, what Tart Fengzi said was related to the interests of the Spirit Clan and the overall situation of the world.

Even Yuxizi asked him to investigate the manipulators behind the shemale war sixteen years ago......

All of this was aimed at Ling Zihuan, how could he not know that in this land of Shenzhou, where there were many disputes in the land of Shenzhou, there were still many things waiting for him to complete, and there were still many mysteries waiting for him to uncover.

Is this his mission?

Just because he has Spirit blood in him?

Thinking of Yuxizi, Ling Zihuan was slightly moved, suddenly remembered something, and said to the fat man: "Take the body out, I have a way!"

As he spoke, he took out a magic weapon from his arms, but it was the "Qianli Scroll" given by Yuxizi in Jing Si Hall on the day Ling Zihuan was expelled from the sect, and he also said that this magic weapon would always be used. Unexpectedly, he really said it.

"What is this?"

"Dry off the scroll!"

The "Qianli Scroll" has a powerful sealing technique, and the creatures sealed in the scroll cannot leak even a trace of breath.

Ling Zihuan thought that since the "Qianli Scroll" could seal an ancient desolate beast as big as Qi Qi, then sealing a mortal at the moment should be more than enough, and it was even a bit overkill.

So, Ling Zihuan hurriedly unfolded the scroll, and a white light burst out. Then, he sat down peacefully, concentrated, and recited the mantra.

"In my name, the gods pray. ”

"In the name of God, by the power of God. ”

"The beginning of the world is like a spark. ”

"Suck your true body and gather as one. ”

"Seal!"

After reading it, the city lord's body turned into a white light, lingering in the void for a week, and then plunged into the brilliant scroll.

Just when the last ray of light disappeared, the fat man's face changed, and the alarm suddenly appeared, exclaiming:

"It's not good, there's a demonic spirit, let's go quickly!"
