"I don't have to thank you." Chen Jiu shook his head and said, "This time, I also made a move with some selfish intentions, but I was not as selfless as you thought. ”

"Oh?" Liu Guoqiang was a little surprised.

In his heart, he thought that Chen Jiu's action was mostly to eliminate harm for the people.

After all, between him and the Ten Elders, the hatred is still so great.

"I have a ghost who was a victim of the Lijiu Mansion twenty years ago, so this time it is mainly for him to avenge him, and the Ten Elders' Association also kidnapped my friend, so between us, the personal vendetta may be greater." Chen Jiu explained.

Before that, he had already promised Zhang Ping to solve his case.

This time, some evidence of the crimes of the Ten Elders' Association was found, and it can be regarded as a cancer in Haishi that was cleared.

As for whether there will be punishment or not.

He hadn't thought about it so much before he did it.

"I see." Liu Guoqiang nodded, "But there is indeed some trouble on the side of the Painted Skin Wang family, especially this time, it seems to be their third generation." ”

Chen Jiu's mind moved, "The third generation? You mean there are two more generations? ”

"That's right, but the first generation of the Wang family is basically in a state of retirement, and I don't know if I'm alive or dead now, but even if I'm alive, it's estimated that I'm still half-dead, and now the second generation of the Wang family is in charge of the overall situation in the headquarters." Liu Guoqiang said.

"The Wang family has a very strong ability to speak in the headquarters, so you must not underestimate them, I guess they are not good at coming this time."

"Does Director Liu know anything about the Wang family? Can you tell me more about it? Chen Jiu said. I heard that the Wang family is a family that was passed down hundreds of years ago, how come it has been passed down for three generations now? ”

If the painting skin royal family is a vein of the city god.

Then according to the chronology.

There should be at least dozens of generations ago, so Chen Jiu will be a behemoth in front of him, and no one knows what kind of hole cards and strength are hidden in this kind of family that has been inherited for hundreds or even thousands of years.

But listen to Liu Guoqiang.

Today's painted skin royal family seems to have only been passed down for three generations, so it is worth playing.

"Actually, I don't know much about the Wang family, I only know that they probably stayed in the era of the Republic of China, and they are not the original painted skin Wang family." Liu Guoqiang slowly said a secret.

"It is said that during the Republic of China, there were quite a few Chenghuang families left, unlike now that only four have left, at that time there were more than a dozen large and small Chenghuang families."

Chen Jiu nodded when he heard this.

He knew this, in the past, there were City God Temples in various places, and each City God Temple contained several families, so there were at least dozens or hundreds of families in total.

Later, the Netherworld disappeared.

These families have become a mess of stragglers, and they can still leave more than a dozen in the Republic of China, which is already good in Chen Jiu's opinion.

"However, a major event happened during the Republic of China, which led to the death and injury of these families." Liu Guoqiang continued.

Event?

Chen Jiu's heart moved, in his memory, the only thing that happened during the Republic of China was war.

However, although there are wars, wars like this will not affect such a city god family with special abilities at all, and with their abilities, it is still very easy to protect themselves in the troubled times.

Therefore, the major event in Liu Guoqiang's mouth is likely to be more than just war.

It's something else that hasn't been recorded in history.

"I won't talk about the history you know, but tell me something you don't know, you should know about today's fear game, right?" Liu Guoqiang said, "Something similar happened during that period, but the situation at that time was a little different from now. ”

"The older generation prefers to call him a hundred ghosts at night."

"Hyakki Night Walk?" Chen Jiu frowned, "Is there a difference between the two?" ”

"Yes, the night walk of a hundred ghosts is even more desperate, in that era, there were many more ghosts for no reason, and there will be no reward for killing these ghosts, all you can do is to survive the attacks of one ghost after another, until you finally die." Liu Guoqiang said.

Hearing this, Chen Jiu frowned deeply.

Hyakki Night Walking?

It was the first time he had heard such a statement.

And just hearing it from Liu Guoqiang's mouth has already made Chen Jiu feel a deep despair, there is no reward, which means that you can't become stronger in one copy after another, what you have experienced is just an abyss of despair for you.

And on the whole earth, there are hundreds of ghosts, and there is no hope at all.

So much so that in the end, it was impossible for anyone to survive that era.

Wrong!

Chen Jiu suddenly realized that his thoughts had overlooked something.

If this is really the case, then there cannot be so many people in the modern city, and then it is impossible for these Chenghuang families to survive, and there can only be one final result, that is, the inheritance is severed.

But judging from the current situation, although these families have been weakened and reduced a lot.

But now there are still four families in the headquarters alone, not counting those scattered ones.

So, they must have found some way to survive under the circumstances.

"You seem to realize something." Liu Guoqiang smiled lightly. "You're smarter than I thought, and you realized the point right of nowhere."

Chen Jiu nodded, "Indeed, according to what Director Liu said, it is impossible for these people to survive at all, but they not only survived, but even survived to modern times." ”

"So I guess they've found the key to survival."

"These things, although they are not confidential, only learned about them after I became the director." Liu Guoqiang said, "Those families have found a cultivation method in one place. ”

"Cultivation method?"

"That's right, that's what you think." Liu Guoqiang said. "And if my guess is correct, you should also have a cultivation method, right?"

Hearing this, Chen Jiu shook his head.

"I do know some techniques, but it's a little different from the cultivation method you think."

His Maoshan Talisman Technique is more inclined to magic than cultivation.

It is a little different from the cultivation method in Liu Guoqiang's mouth.

"I see." Liu Guoqiang nodded. "You know, over the past hundreds of years, in fact, among these Chenghuang families, the inheritance is incomplete, and only a few of them still have some magic left, but relying on the cultivation methods they found in one place, these families have become strong in a short period of time."

"To this day, basically these four can be regarded as one family."
