Chapter 740: Grandpa's Legacy
Outside the door, a middle-aged man's voice was heard.
"How's the investigation going?"
The guards stood in a row respectfully, and the middle-aged man led by him said respectfully: "If you go back to the city lord, there are eight deceased, and the death is the same as before, and there is no investigation for the time being."
Outside the door, a young man wearing a gray robe and holding a peach wood bracelet in his palm slowly walked into the door.
Although he said that he looked like a young man, I could sense that this person should be more than 500 years old, and his strength was in the early stage of sacrificing wine Taoists.
Murphy and I have reached the realm of Taoist priests at home, and the two of us can handle a sacrificial Taoist priest at the beginning, and we don't need to be too nervous.
What's more, there is such a powerful thug as Li Wenjuan.
However, when I look at the bracelet of a young man, it always feels familiar......
The man pointed to the corpse, "Bury these few who are about to rot, and send the rest to Yizhuang for examination."
"Yes!"
The corpse was carried away, and I suddenly turned to my senses, the peach wood bracelet worn by the man was not my grandfather's thing!
There can be many peach bracelets, but the beads on this bracelet have dense black-purple cracks.
Lightning strikes the heart of a thousand-year-old peachwood, and the bead at the top of the line bundle is also engraved with a simple oracle bone inscription' ligature, representing the highest state of Taoism - the unity of heaven and man.
I exclaimed, "Where did you get the beads!?"
The group was taken aback, and the middle-aged man scolded, "You are not allowed to be unreasonable to the city lord!"
"It doesn't matter."
The young man in white waved his hand, and then looked at me with earnest eyes, "Little brother, do you know this string of beads?"
Murphy sensed that something was wrong with my emotions, and grabbed the nameless sword, and said in a threatening voice, "Ask you where the beads came from, didn't you hear?".
The twenty guards present immediately drew their long knives and confronted us.
"Don't panic!"
The young man stopped the group again, with a kind smile on his face, "Don't be nervous, my name is Lin Feng, and I am the city lord of Sun Moon City."
"This string of beads in my hand was placed here by my master and ordered me to keep it for me."
"I heard from Master that this string of beads will shine when worn in the hands of the true owner."
I held out my hand, "Give me the beads."
"Okay."
Lin Feng gave me the bead happily, and the moment I put it on, a golden light immediately flashed, and a message immediately drilled into my head.
The message was a string of runes, and I tried to chant it, and in an instant a golden shield of light enveloped my body.
The mask resembles a turtle shell, made of ninety-nine five-diamond shapes, with a radius of about two meters, enough to hold two or three people.
I don't know anything about the rest except for the message from the protective shield.
The string of mahogany prayer beads left by my grandfather is extremely strong in defense, and I can't even sense the limit of its power.
I said to Li Wenjuan, "You tried to attack me."
Li Wenjuan was so frightened that she waved her hand again and again, "I don't dare!"
"Less nonsense, let you test the strength of the defensive reticle, don't grind."
Li Wenjuan's eyes became solemn at this time, and her fingertips began to quickly condense blood-colored energy, and this power condensed into a point, attacking towards the lower left corner of the turtle shell.
She's pretty honest, and even if such an attack breaks through the shield, it won't hurt us.
Lin Feng on the side was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he subconsciously took a step away from Li Wenjuan.
The attack that Li Wenjuan used just now was already an all-out attack of the Heavenly Master Realm without sparing, not to mention him, even Murphy and I couldn't bear it.
The energy falls on the light mask, and after two flashes, the attack disappears instantly.
Even Li Wenjuan herself was surprised, "Mr. Zhuge , this magic weapon of yours is powerful enough!"
"Stop talking nonsense, come again!"
Li Wenjuan condensed one more
Dao's stronger power bombarded the energy shield, but it still didn't make any waves.
I can probably sense that the energy stored in the bracelet has been reduced by less than one-tenth.
If it goes on like this, Li Wenjuan will be able to break the protective cover when she attacks the last tea.
"Alright."
I folded the shield away, carefully sensing the energy in the bracelet.
When the bracelet is not in use, the energy used to be consumed will be replenished at a slow rate.
If it is used up all at once, it will take a month to replenish it.
The loss of strength like the one just now can be refilled in three hours.
Lin Feng wiped away the beads of sweat from his forehead, and said in a respectful tone, "It turns out that the three of them are all masters, and they are disrespectful!"
I asked, "What is your Master's identity?"
Lin Feng said respectfully, "He calls himself a Dragon Slayer Daoist, and he traveled here a year ago and stayed here for two months."
"Master said that I had some wisdom roots, so he taught me some skills and pointed out a great trouble and a clear path for me."
Speaking of this, Lin Feng glanced at the corpse on the ground, and said with a smile, "This is not the place to talk, please come with me to the City Lord's Mansion to talk in detail."
As soon as I was about to refuse, Li Wenjuan begged, "Mr. Zhuge , the smell of this ghost place is too bad, can you change it?"
I looked at Murphy and saw that she was also covering her nose, so I had to agree to go to the City Lord's Mansion first.
After traveling about thirty miles, we came to the door of a mansion.
The courtyard occupies an area, about the size of two basketball courts, which is not magnificent but quiet and elegant.
Standing at the door, Li Wenjuan's face fell.
"What, I thought it was a big extravagant palace, just such a dilapidated house?"
Lin Feng scratched his head in embarrassment, "I've never been particular about living, and I've wronged the three of them."
I glared at Li Wenjuan, "You don't like to live, just go out and stay!"
Li Wenjuan, who was scolded by me, didn't dare to say anything, and honestly followed behind.
In the main hall of the city lord's mansion, in an elegant wooden house, the maid brought hot tea and pastries.
We were only halfway through breakfast, just enough to fill our stomachs.
Once I sat down, I couldn't help but urge, "Go on."
Lin Feng said, "Master, his old man's strength is unfathomable, and he can spy on the numerology of heaven and earth, and divinate good fortune."
"He predicted that our Sun Moon City would be destroyed in a year's time!
"So, in addition to teaching me some Taoism, he also gave me a string of mahogany prayer beads, saying that it could ward off calamities!"
I was a little puzzled, "The Mahogany Rosary is just a defensive magic weapon, what does it have to do with cracking the calamity?"
Lin Feng was a little distressed, "I also asked at the beginning, but Master and his old man said that the opportunity is wonderful, and I will know when the time comes."
"Understood."
I drank the tea in my cup, and Zhengse said, "I will help you solve the matter of Sun Moon City, and as for this bracelet, it belongs to me."
Lin Feng was shocked, "Little brother, if you want something else, maybe I can cut my love, but the bracelet will never work!"
