056, the corpse of the soul master
It was getting dark, and Lin Luo was walking on the way back, holding a piece of jade in his hand, and the sound of the evil moon was coming from the jade.
"The content of the mission is the soul master's corpse trade, and nine times out of ten it is related to the evil soul master, we will gather at the old place tomorrow morning and set off for Notting City."
A very simple and clear sentence, and then there was no sound, and Lin Luo put away the jade.
"Soul Master's corpse trade?"
Lin Luo's mind involuntarily conjured up a scene of a thin man carrying the corpse of a soul master to their coffin shop to do business.
It was more than a year ago, the day his martial soul awakened, so the memory is particularly deep.
"It can't be so evil, is it, could it be that the soul master's corpse trade has started since then?"
Thinking of this, Lin Luo suddenly had a feeling of being extremely frightened.
"I hope it doesn't involve my family......"
Back at his residence, Lin Luo still didn't see his teacher, Ghost Douluo.
It's been a long time since I've seen him, could it be that he's gone on a mission?
The next day, Lin Luo and his teammates gathered at the gate of the Martial Spirit Academy, and as before, they rented a carriage in Martial Spirit City, and then headed towards Notting City.
Of course, Qianrenxue is also in place, but it is still the same, a cold appearance that no one can approach.
Renting a carriage again, Lin Luo couldn't help asking, "We often carry out tasks, why don't we just buy a carriage?" Wouldn't that be more cost-effective? ”
What Lin Luo didn't expect was that this time it was Evil Moon who answered his question.
"Rent a carriage, Wuhun Hall will pay for it, buy a carriage, and pay for it yourself."
"Okay."
Lin Luo immediately understood Evil Moon's operation.
At this time, Hu Liena added: "The main reason is that this carriage is too expensive, and it needs to be taken care of by someone every once in a while, which is too troublesome." ”
Along the way, everyone entered a silent way of getting along again.
Five days later, they arrived in Notting City.
Yes, Notting City is farther away than Sotho City, but this time Lin Luo didn't have the slightest doubt.
Part of the reason is that the last mission in Soto City had already brought him experience, and besides, being able to go home was acceptable no matter how far away.
I haven't been home for more than a year, so I can take advantage of this mission to go back and see my family.
Walking into Notting City, you are greeted by that long-lost sense of familiarity, which always gives people a very reassuring feeling, which cannot be brought by even the most prosperous and high-end cities.
After the carriage was parked, Lin Luo and the others went directly to the Notting City Branch, and along the way, Lin Luo's gaze continued to sweep over the things he was familiar with.
It's been more than a year since Notting City left, and the city still hasn't changed at all.
However, this is also normal, a small city like Notting City is located in a relatively remote area, let alone a year, even if it is ten or eight years, it is difficult to usher in major changes.
"Lin Luo, how do I feel that you are more excited to come to this small city than we were to a big city like Soto City before?"
The teammates quickly saw the difference in Lin Luo, and Hu Liena asked directly with a smile.
Under the mask, a smile unconsciously rose on Lin Luo's face: "This is where I grew up." ”
Although Lin Luo has not been in this world for a few years, Notting City has given him a very special sense of belonging.
Hu Liena nodded slightly, and then did not ask any more questions.
Sensitive topics like birth origins aren't talked about too much by anyone in the squad.
Soon, Lin Luo and his party arrived at the branch hall of Notting City.
Lin Luo saw a familiar face, Lan Hanxue, the hall master of the Notting City Branch Hall, only a year has passed, this Grandpa Lan seems to be a lot older, and the mental state of the whole person seems to be relatively poor, which is estimated to be related to the corpse trading incident of the soul master.
"Five adults, please come here!"
Lan Hanxue entertained Lin Luo and his group very warmly, and finally came to an office on the second floor.
Or Lan Hanxue sensed a familiar feeling from Lin Luo's body, and his eyes always fell on Lin Luo's body from time to time.
When he saw an acquaintance, Lin Luo also wanted to say hello, but if he said hello, he would lose the meaning of wearing a mask.
"Let's talk about the mission." Evil Moon is still as efficient as ever.
Lan Hanxue smiled and nodded, and then immediately talked about the soul master's corpse trading incident.
"Just a few days ago, our branch found out about the transaction of soul masters, and many people bought the corpses of soul masters and entrusted the corpse movers to send them to the designated location, and we immediately launched an investigation after we found out."
"After the investigation, we learned that the person who bought the corpse of the soul master was also at the mercy of others, and the clue was broken here, and the location of the corpse mover was uncertain, but after our in-depth investigation, we finally targeted a village near Notting City, which is called Dog King Village."
"In the early hours of this morning, two personnel from our branch went to investigate, and there has been no news so far."
Evil Moon nodded slightly: "We know, just leave the rest to us." ”
Lan Hanxue immediately smiled and agreed: "Okay, thank you five adults!" ”
Then Lan Hanxue took out a map and handed it to Evil Moon: "My lord, this is our map of Notting City, and the target location has been marked!" ”
Evil Moon took it, and then left with Lin Luo and them.
When the five of them left, Lan Hanxue's gaze stayed on Lin Luo's body, and finally he couldn't help but muttered to himself in his heart: "How can there be such a small adult?" Or was he born small? ”
"Lin Luo's child has been gone for more than a year, if he eats and drinks well, he can probably grow so tall."
"Could it be that this adult is Lin Luo, but how is this possible, even if Lin Luo's kid has innate soul power level 20, it is impossible to reach the level of soul venerable in a year, it seems that I am really confused......"
Lan Hanxue rubbed his somewhat swollen head: "Now that the adults of Wuhun City are here, leave the rest to them, and these bad things should be over......"
On the streets of Notting City, Evil Moon glanced at the map and quickly determined the route to Dog King Village.
Lin Luo didn't need to look at the map, and when he heard the name of Dog King Village, he had already figured out how to get there in his mind, but he also knew that his information should not be exposed as much as possible, otherwise it would only bring unnecessary trouble.
Because of his coffin shop business, Lin Luo has been to a lot of villages near Notting City, and Dog King Village is the most impressive village in Lin Luo except for Holy Soul Village, and there is no need to experience anything special there, the name alone is enough to make people remember it very easily.
And the name of the Dog King Village also has a origin, and it is the same as the Soul Saint in the Holy Soul Village, and this Dog King Village has produced a Soul King, as for the martial soul of the Soul King, it is obviously related to the dog.
Lin Luo still clearly remembers that his father asked the village chief of Gouwang Village that year, why he didn't call it Wolf King Village, which would sound better.
The village chief of Dog King Village replied with a serious face: "What you want is a truth, if you call the wolf king, you will not respect the soul king who came out of the village." ”
When Lin Luo thought about it now, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
The road was calm, and it only took Lin Luo and the five of them an hour to arrive at Dog King Village.
