Chapter 114: Doubts
The news of the destruction of the Blood Snake Village had spread throughout the ten cities in just one day.
That night, the Ten Cities City Lord's Mansion feasted the whole city, took out all the old people to buy a banquet, and held a grand carnival.
But all of this didn't seem to have anything to do with Ling Hao.
He politely refused Xu Jingshen and Cao Bo's strong invitations, and returned to Zhang's house after returning to Xuanyan City on the pretext of recuperating from his injuries.
After poisoning the Blood Snake Village into a dead village, he and Zhang Jianjun turned the Blood Snake Village upside down in the past two days, and obtained a lot of valuable things and intelligence.
He'd have to sort it out.
The celebration banquet at the City Lord's Mansion was dealt with by Zhang Jianjun, who had already memorized his lines. Anyway, Zhang Jianjun is going to marry Ling Wan, and his reputation has risen before he gets married, and the wedding will be more lively at that time.
In the next few days, the topic of the destruction of the Blood Snake Village still maintained a high level of popularity in the Ten Cities, and became the main thing that people talked about after dinner.
Xu Jingshen, the city lord of Xuanyan City, was far-sighted, first showing the enemy weakness and then sending dead soldiers to eliminate the old nest of the Blood Snake Village, which was talked about by the cultivators and ordinary people in the Ten Cities, and many versions were derived.
The cultivators and ordinary people who had come from various cities to thank Xu Jingshen were about to step on the threshold of the Xuanyan City City Lord's Mansion.
As for Ling Hao and Zhang Jianjun, who played the role of dead soldiers in this matter, few people mentioned it.
This is exactly the result that Ling Hao wants.
The matter of destroying the Blood Snake Village, if it were put on a sixteen-year-old boy like him, people would only find it incredible. After the Xuanyan City Medicine Conference, Ling Hao had already begun to be taken seriously by all parties, and if this matter was also placed on his head, it was very likely that there would be a lot of unnecessary trouble.
However, this matter was a pot for Ling Hao to throw out, but for the Xuanyan City City Lord's Mansion represented by Xu Jingshen, it was a great thing that fell from the sky.
Xuanyan City, which was originally in the bottom few of the ten cities, became the most famous city among the ten cities overnight because of this incident, and the prestige of the city lord Xu Jingshen soared.
There are even many people and cultivators in other cities who want to move their family business to Xuanyan City.
In order to thank Ling Hao, Cao Bo and Chu Huan personally came to Zhang's house with gifts to thank them.
In the eyes of Xu Jingshen, Cao Bo, and Chu Huan, Ling Hao already had the qualifications to sit on an equal footing with the Xuanyan City City Lord's Mansion, and he should not be slackened.
After that, Ling Hao handed over a roster he had sorted out to Cao Bo.
What was recorded on it was all the relevant information about the eyeliner and spies that the Blood Snake Village had arranged in the Ten Cities before. After Cao Bo obtained this thing, he knew how to use this roster to get the most out of Xuanyan City.
Not long after Cao Bo and Chu Huan left, Ning Yue'er, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, came to Zhang's house angrily.
Ling Hao sent Cao Bo and Chu Huan away, and was about to go to the dumb uncle to have a look, but he didn't expect this eldest lady to suddenly come to the door, and he couldn't hide if he wanted to.
"Do you hate me very much?" Ning Yue'er saw Ling Hao, and asked with a slap in her face, "We're friends anyway, how many times have I invited you to the City Lord's Mansion?"
Because Zhang Fenghai was still beside him, Ling Hao couldn't give the eldest lady a look like he did when he was in the Yinyun Mountain Range, so he smiled helplessly: "I'm sorry, there have been too many things recently, and I just went out not long ago, and I was still injured, so it was inconvenient to move." ”
Zhang Fenghai saw that Ning Yue'er's eyes were full of resentment, and knew that he was not suitable to stay here, so he smiled and said, "Ling Hao, you talk to the eldest lady first, and Uncle Zhang will prepare lunch." ”
After Zhang Fenghai left, Ling Hao was hesitating what to say, and Ning Yue'er said, "My father told me everything, you were the one who destroyed the Blood Snake Village, right?"
Ling Hao smiled faintly: "The city lord actually told you all this kind of thing, it seems that he wants to train you as a successor." Here, congratulations in advance to the first female city lord in the history of Xuanyan City. ”
"Come less. ”
Ning Yue'er looked at Ling Hao, and the resentment in her eyes became even stronger: "If you are willing to join the City Lord's Mansion, how can I have any business." ”
Seeing that Ling Hao didn't speak, Ning Yue'er understood that Ling Hao really had no intention of joining the City Lord's Mansion and inheriting the position of the City Lord of Xuanyan City in the future.
After being silent for a while, Ning Yue'er asked, "Do you have any plans for the future?"
"When my sister gets married, I'll leave here and go somewhere else. ”
Ning Yue'er was not surprised by Ling Hao's plans. Xu Jingshen told her that the area where the Ten Cities were located could not accommodate Ling Hao at all.
"Since the city lord has told you the truth about the destruction of the Blood Snake Village, then you should also know that in this area, in addition to the evil forces on the surface of the Blood Snake Village, there is also a force called the Hundred Ghost Sect, which is constantly infiltrating here. ”
Ling Hao said: "It is impossible for the Hundred Ghost Sect to only have a connection with the Blood Snake Village, among the ten cities, there should be many forces that have been in contact with them. ”
"If the Hundred Ghost Sect had always existed, this area would have always been shrouded in the shadow of the evil path cultivators. So, after leaving here, I'll go to Dongqi County, where the Hundred Ghost Sect is located. Moreover, I now have a lot of doubts in my heart to find answers to them in the Hundred Ghost Sect. ”
"Confused?" Ning Yue'er asked.
Ling Hao thought for a moment and said, "Song Xuetian obtained a secret method from the Hundred Ghost Sect, which is called the Guiyuan Sacrifice Method. ”
"As far as I know, the secret method of the Guiyuan Sacrifice originated from an ancient family that had been destroyed. The Guiyuan Sacrifice Method obtained by Song Xuetian was just a defective product that was mutilated and modified, and was applicable to the evil path. ”
"If there is a defective product that has been modified, there should be a complete version. What I want to know most now is where I got the Hundred Ghost Sect's Guiyuan Sacrifice Method. ”
The Guiyuan sacrifice method originated from the Yang family in Yunhengling in the eastern region of the mainland.
In the previous life, when the gods and ghosts were still there, the Yang family had already declined, and there was only one heir left.
At that time, he was the only one in the entire continent who knew how to perform the Guiyuan Sacrifice Method.
That person was also one of Ling Hao's best friends in his previous life. Captain Divine Ghost Army, Captain Yang Tian!
Why did Yang Tian's unique Guiyuan Sacrifice Method fall into the hands of an evil force like the Hundred Ghost Sect?
After I entered the Divine Skull Mountain in my previous life, what happened on the mainland?
Why did the Divine Ghost Army disappear?
All of this, I can only go to the Hundred Ghost Sect to find the answer!
A flash of gloom flashed in Ning Yue'er's eyes, and after that, she smiled and chatted with Ling Hao about some interesting things that had happened in the city recently, as well as some interesting places she had discovered when she visited the medicine garden not long ago.
Ling Hao smiled faintly and continued with her topic.
After that, Ning Yue'er had lunch at Zhang's house, talked to Ling Wan, and visited Uncle Dumb by the way, before leaving Zhang's mansion.
Seeing Ning Yue'er leave, Ling Wan stared at Ling Hao for a while, and asked mysteriously, "Xiao Hao, why do I think Miss Yue'er is a little interesting to you? She looks at you differently. ”
"The old lady who sells cakes at the door doesn't look at me differently, she is also interesting to me?" Ling Hao shook his head, "Sister, I'll go back first." ”
"Why are you going to do it yet?"
"Refining elixir. ”
It's finally time to be free, it's time to try refining the second grade pill!
