Chapter 681: Mission Inheritance
The guards of the Nine Demon City vigilantly checked the demons entering and leaving the city.
Recently, a lot of things have happened in the city, suspected of being a human Buddhist monk mixed into the city, secretly inquiring about the news, fortunately by Qiao Zhuang dressed up, the deputy city lord of the private interview.
However, the thief's cultivation is strong, even if the deputy city lord personally takes action, he is still escaped by the other party.
For a while, the entire Nine Demon City was in turmoil.
After all, the deputy city lord is a monk in the god transformation period, and if the thieves can escape from his hands, most of them are also god transformation monks, so the enemy is lurking in the city, which naturally makes it difficult for people to sleep and eat.
Fortunately, there is still a deputy city lord in the city, and the large city protection array is always in operation, once the enemy dares to show his head, he will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.
Deep in the west of the Nine Ghost Demon City, in an inconspicuous private house.
Dressed in coarse linen, Master Wanhai said impatiently, "How long will it take to get out of the city?"
Ming Fan, who was short in stature and ugly in appearance, bowed down and said: "Zen master, don't be impatient, our people are already arranging, but the city has been very strict recently, and we still need some time to get through the procedures." ”
"You'd better move faster, or I'll have to get out on my own. Zen Master Wanhai said coldly.
"Zen master rest assured, in a few days, we will be able to go out without noticing. Ming Fan nodded, and then turned around and left.
However, after a moment, he hurried back again, looking surprised and delighted.
"What, do you have anything else?" Seeing Ming Fan go and return, Zen Master Wanhai couldn't help frowning slightly.
"This is the latest ranking of the Demon Doctor List, please see page 16 for Zen Master. Ming Fan hurriedly handed a green book in his hand to Master Wanhai.
Zen Master Wanhai nodded and took it, and turned to page 16 with a look of doubt on his face, and his face couldn't help but be stunned.
After a while, Qi Cai whispered with a slightly strange face: "Where did Lu Chen, who ranked fifteenth on the Demon Doctor List, come from, and why does he look so similar to that Duan Chen?"
"According to the guess of the Demon Doctor Pavilion, this Lu Chen is very likely to be a disciple of a hidden demon doctor, but the juniors feel that this person's origin is very strange, and it is very likely that Duan Chen's new identity is disguised. Ming Fan guessed.
"It's not quite like it, first of all, the Demon Doctor Pavilion has already determined the identity of his demon clan, which shouldn't be fake, and secondly, even if Duan Chen wants to disguise his identity, it is impossible to be stupid enough to show his true face, and he is so fanfare, if it were you, would you do it?"
Zen Master Wanhai shook his head and said, "Take 10,000 steps back and say, if this Lu Chen is really Duan Chen's new identity disguised, then Lao Qu really can't figure out what his purpose is in doing this." ”
Ming Fan pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "The juniors can't figure it out. ”
"If you can't figure it out, send someone to investigate, no matter whether this Lu Chen is disguised or not, instead of believing what others say, it is better for us to send someone to check it ourselves. ”
Zen Master Wanhai's eyes narrowed slightly: "But don't startle the snake, this Lu Chen is also a little famous now, but I am afraid that there are not a few demon forces that secretly target him and want to recruit him, and before determining his true identity, it will only be bad to take action." ”
"Yes. Ming Fan nodded, and then bowed and retreated.
Zen Master Wan Hai glanced up at the scorching sun overhead, and immediately got up and returned to the house.
At the end of summer, the sun is scorching, but for hard-working people, the hot climate does not crush their enthusiasm, they cherish every day, even if they sweat, they never complain.
Nie Xiaofeng walked briskly to the dock as usual.
Qinghe Town is a small town on Qinghe Bay, relying on the geographical advantages of Qinghe Bay, the water trade of Qinghe Town is very developed, and there is an endless stream of merchant ships, which also makes Nie Xiaofeng, who is a dock porter, never lack work.
It was noon, and it wasn't long before the merchant ships of the various chambers of commerce would dock, and it was time when a large number of porters were needed to help carry the goods.
Moreover, the salary at noon is often half a percent higher than that in the early morning and evening, as long as you are willing to endure hardships and work harder, it is not a problem to earn two or three taels of silver a day.
"Xiaofeng, why haven't I seen you come out to play these days?" shouted a porter friend halfway through.
"When have you ever seen him come out to play? All day long except work or stay at home, there is no interest in life at all. Another porter friend rolled his eyes and said with a look of hatred.
Nie Xiaofeng smiled shyly and didn't say anything.
"I also think I'm stupid to ask. The first porter friend spread his hands: "Okay, the merchant ships of the Dawan Chamber of Commerce are about to dock, and if you don't hurry to the dock, the quota will be snatched up by others." ”
"Alas, if I were half as handsome as Xiaofeng, I'm afraid I would have had a group of wives and concubines a long time ago. The words of another porter friend were full of envy and jealousy.
Nie Xiaofeng shook his head and couldn't help but speed up his pace and rush towards the dock.
He is not too tall among his peers, but his body is very slender, and he doesn't look like a porter, especially his face is delicate, his eyebrows and eyes are deep, and he is very charming.
Nie Xiaofeng smiled bitterly in his heart, and was about to pretend not to see.
Suddenly, his face changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal, looking the same as usual.
However, in a blink of an eye, the two porters, who were not far away from Nie Xiaofeng, found that he had suddenly disappeared, and they couldn't help but wonder, but they didn't get too entangled.
After all, people have three urgency, maybe Nie Xiaofeng is to solve the internal urgency.
However, they didn't know that Nie Xiaofeng had returned home at this time.
As soon as he returned home, Nie Xiaofeng quickly closed the door.
It was only then that there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.
He quickly spread out his palm, and the palm prints on his hand turned blood-colored at some point, becoming hotter and hotter, as if he had suddenly come to life.
"It turned out to be true, and the legend recorded in the genealogy turned out to be true!"
He muttered to himself, his face was a little complicated, surprised and delighted, and a little hesitant.
He thought of his deceased father and mother, whose deathbed instructions were the same.
Never forget the mission of the Nie family!
The same sentence was mentioned by his grandfather to his father before he died, so he was deeply impressed.
It's just that to this day, he doesn't know what the so-called mission of the Nie family is?
Grandpa didn't know, and neither did Father.
They only knew that one day in the future, someone would issue a blood call, and that would be the time for their Nie family to fulfill its mission.
Originally, Nie Xiaofeng thought that he was only afraid that he would not be able to wait for the blood summoning in his life, and he would not be able to wait for the day when he needed to fulfill his mission, but the hot palm lines on his palms reminded him at all times that it was time for him to fulfill the mission of the Nie family.
But now the Nie family is left alone, and if something happens to him, there will be no one in the Nie family who can inherit the lineage.
Do you want to obey the blood call and fulfill the mission of the Nie family?
For a while, Nie Xiaofeng couldn't help but fall into a dilemma.
At this time, he suddenly remembered a story that his father had told him, the Nie family in the story was unprecedentedly powerful, but it was only later that it suddenly changed and the family fell into the middle of the road, so it fell to this point.
To this day, he still remembers his father's sigh at that time, if the Nie family had not declined, with Nie Xiaofeng's qualifications and the full support of the family, his cultivation would have far exceeded that of now.
But Nie Xiaofeng never took this seriously.
Since his father and mother passed away one after another, he has just practiced the exercises inherited by the family step by step, and at the same time disguised himself as a porter and lived in seclusion in Qinghe Town, never feeling that there was anything wrong with such a day.
He even thought that he would live in seclusion in Qinghe Town for the rest of his life.
It wasn't until today that the appearance of Blood Summoning reminded him of the mission of the Nie family, as well as the unprecedentedly powerful Nie family in his father's story.
For some reason, he really wanted to confirm whether the Nie family in his father's mouth really existed.
As soon as this thought was generated, it was irrepressibly filled Nie Xiaofeng's mind and lingered.
Soon, he made a decision in his heart and began to pack his luggage silently.
He didn't know what the mission of the Nie family was passed down by his ancestors, let alone who sent the blood call, but he knew that the blood church would guide him to the truth.
At the same time, there were also people in the entire Donghua Continent who encountered the same situation as Nie Feng, some people packed their bags and chose to set off without hesitation, while some people chose to stay and did not respond to the call of the bloodline in their bodies.
Mo'an City, the city lord's mansion.
Chi Yun was a little strange, today's Duan Chen did not stay in the house to cultivate as usual, but sat in the courtyard in a daze, which made him feel a little unreasonable
However, he didn't know that Duan Chen was digesting some of the things that the Heaven Locking Temple Machine Spirit had told him at the moment.
If it weren't for the Heaven Locking Temple's instrument spirit taking the initiative to explain, he wouldn't have known that before the decline of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, there were still some backhands left.
However, thinking of those monks who responded to the blood call and were rushing from all over the Donghua Continent at this moment, Duan Chen didn't feel that his head was big.
Although he does need some people to help deal with some things at the moment, he will inevitably feel that there is a long way to go to take charge of the future of such a large number of people at once, even if he has broken through to the late Yuan Infant stage now.
But now that the wood is in the boat, he can only prepare early.
Thinking of this, he was about to ask the Heaven Locking Temple Instrument Spirit how to attract those people over, when he suddenly noticed that there was an extra person in the courtyard, and he couldn't help but look up.
"Master Lu, the two envoys of the Nine Ghost Demon City are about to leave for the Nine Demon City today, I wonder if the master is ready?" Seeing Duan Chen's gaze towards him, Chi Yun hurriedly explained his intentions.
"Since we said we would go together, let's start today, I don't have anything to prepare here, and I can leave at any time. Duan Chen said, and then the voice sent to call Tu Man and the ghost who was cultivating.
The four of them stopped in the courtyard for a while, then directly boarded a dark magic boat, and followed the white-haired girl and the scorpion-tailed man to the Nine Demon City.
