Chapter 271: Seeing the Ghost Hou Lu (I)
On a rather luxurious medium-sized ship, "Lu Xin" stood alone in the bow of the ship, looking at the fierce ghost fog that was blocked by the ship's protective shield and constantly flying on both sides, his face was expressionless, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
However, only "Lu Xin" himself can feel that in fact, his palms are already slightly sweaty, which represents the tension in his heart.
It's about to really face off with the strongest elder in the ghost domain, "Lu Xin" doesn't know if he can play "Lu Xin" well and not show the slightest flaw in front of him.
It's not that he's afraid that he'll be killed if he's exposed, but once he's exposed, the entire organization's plan will be over, and the members of the organization will probably be unable to survive in peace, let alone escape from the ghost realm. Therefore, the responsibility on his shoulders is too great, and he has to worry about it. Especially thinking of the strength of the ghost Hou Lu, "Lu Xin" became a little more nervous.
"Hey, compared to this ancestor, your mentality is still not good. As the saying goes, 'if you come, you will be safe', does it make sense for you to be nervous?" Xue Buping naturally felt the nervousness of "Lu Xin", so he comforted him.
With a wry smile, "Lu Xin" still nodded: "Ancestor, you are right, if I go to see the ghost Hou Lu in this state now, I am afraid that it will be easy to be seen as a problem." ”
Thinking of this, "Lu Xin" was shocked, and suddenly a slightly arrogant temperament was shown by him, which was exactly the temperament that the real Lu Xin should have.
A smile appeared on his face, as if he was looking forward to seeing his grandfather who he hadn't seen for two years, and the sweat in "Lu Xin's" hands gradually decreased.
Soon after, a white island appeared in the eyes of "Lu Xin" in the distance. "Lu Xin" narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the island he came to for the second time, and his heart that had finally relaxed couldn't help but tighten again.
But soon, he relaxed again, put on the appearance of returning to his homeland, and said to himself, "Finally back!"
As he spoke, "Lu Xin" also stretched his waist, that kind of natural and ordinary temperament, I am afraid that only a monk with extremely rich experience and experience like him can pretend. Of course, this has to be done without the heartless Xue Buping.
After breaking through the ghost fog and the ship was only less than a hundred zhang away from Heart Island, "Lu Xin" turned around and shouted: "Thank you Daoyou for sending you off, let's go here, Lu Xin left!"
seems polite, but there is a bit of arrogance in the words. Before the monk at the helm could reply, "Lu Xin" had already flown up, like an old horse who knew his way, and flew towards the Heart Island.
In the blink of an eye, "Lu Xin" had already stepped on the white ground of Heart Island. He knew that it was best for him to visit that ghost Hou Lu as soon as possible. And this is not a difficult thing for him, because he is familiar with the terrain of Heart Island and knows how to walk.
It's just that if you want him to do it more freely, someone has to lead him. After all, he didn't know what the specific situation was in the place where Ghost Hou Lu was, and whether there would be any rules.
"Now that you're back, come right away. Just as he was hesitating slightly, an extremely old voice poured into the ears of "Lu Xin" with the feeling of time, and then he felt an extremely powerful divine sense power sweep over him, and after a while, he took it back.
With such a voice and such a power, "Lu Xin" is naturally very familiar, and it all belongs to the ghost Hou Lu.
The divine consciousness subconsciously poked out, and followed the path of the voice and the divine sense, and "Lu Xin" quickly locked on to the place where the ghost Hou Lu was at this time.
Smiling, "Lu Xin" bowed to the ghost marquis Lu very politely, and responded: "Yes, grandpa!"
The place where the ghost marquis Lu Yesun lived was near the east side of the Ghost King Palace, and the straight-line distance between it and the Ghost King Hall was not far. Of course, due to the obstruction of the stone forest, the two places that were originally not far apart seemed to exist in two worlds.
"Lu Xin" didn't need to suppress his divine sense at all, so he easily mastered the terrain of the entire Heart Island in his heart, so it would naturally not be a problem for him to go to the place where the ghost Hou Lu was, and he would not show the slightest flaw.
Bypassing the periphery of Heart Island, "Lu Xin" easily shuttled through the labyrinthine stone forest, and soon entered the central area of Heart Island, and soon approached the place where Ghost Hou Lu was.
Coming out from behind a boulder, what appeared in front of "Lu Xin" was a not too big clearing, and in the center of the clearing, there were two small hills, one large and one small, which looked quite eye-catching. "Lu Xin" knew that this was the residence of the ghost marquis Lu and his grandson, and I was afraid that "Lu Xin" really stayed in the place where he stayed the most before leaving Heart Island.
"I didn't expect the Great Elder with the highest status in the entire Ghost Domain to live in such a place. Compared with the ghost marquis and ghost generals who are too good at enjoying themselves in the inner and outer rings, the ghost marquis Lu is really worthy of being a strong man who has fought with the ghost king. "I was a little stunned by the scene in front of me," Lu Xin thought.
Then he noticed a deep black hole beneath the slightly larger knoll. And an old hungry ghost who looked extremely old but had an outstanding temperament was standing at the entrance of the cave, with no joy or sorrow on his face, and his eyes shot straight towards "Lu Xin".
Majestic, calm, unfathomable.
Seeing the ghost Hou Lu again, "Lu Xin" still couldn't help but take pictures of his powerful aura. Ghost Hou Lu looks old, but he is like an old tree that has existed for an unknown number of years. It may look quite unbearable on the outside, and even a little decayed, but inside it contains an extremely large amount of energy, enough to support the energy of the towering canopy.
"Lu Xin" knows that although the ghost Hou Lu is a grandfather to the real Lu Xin, although the ghost Hou Lu loves the real Lu Xin very much, but this grandfather and grandson are probably more in a master-apprentice relationship. And the ghost marquis Lu has mostly always maintained a certain majesty in front of "Lu Xin".
So, "Lu Xin" looked solemn, and bowed to the ghost Hou Lu Yi: "Grandpa, my grandson has been out for two years and finally comes back!"
Ghost Marquis Lu Man's majestic face gradually showed a smile, nodded at "Lu Xin", and beckoned: "Come here." ”
"Lu Xin" arrived in front of the ghost Hou Lu, and heard the ghost Hou Lu say again: "Yes, the cultivation has improved a little, it seems that you have not wasted the past two years." ”
Listening to the words of the ghost Hou Lu, "Lu Xin" couldn't help but feel a burst of surprise in his heart. During that period of time just now, he didn't feel any divine sense power sweeping over him at all, how could it be that Ghost Hou Lu had already investigated his own situation?
"This ghost Hou Lu is too strong, I need to be careful on this heart island, be careful, be careful. But fortunately, the cultivation I show now is a little stronger than when Zhen Lu Xin was on Heart Island, although I am still in the middle of my life, but I have improved. He broke this point, but it showed that I didn't show any flaws. Thinking of this secretly in his heart, "Lu Xin" showed a slight smug smile on his face, and said, "When did my grandson disappoint my grandfather?"
Ghost Hou Lu heard the arrogant words of "Lu Xin", and the smile on his old face became even thicker, and said: "Yes, my grandson, you should be like this." ”
There was a slight silence, but Ghost Hou Lu's face gradually became serious, and he said, "There is still one year left before the Enlightenment Ceremony." Although you have never participated in the ceremony, you have heard a lot about it. If you can obtain the inheritance left by the Ghost King during the ceremony, then you may be able to become the hope of reviving my Ghost Domain!"
"For the next year, you don't have to wander around, just cultivate in your own cave with peace of mind. It's best to raise your cultivation to the late stage of the Destiny Palm, so that your chances of getting the inheritance will be greater. ”
Hearing the words of the ghost Hou Lu, the smile on the face of "Lu Xin" was extremely obvious. "Lu Xin" naturally didn't expect that the ghost Hou Lu would directly ask himself to go into retreat after he arrived on Heart Island. Although this allowed him to have less contact with Ghost Hou Lu, and naturally showed fewer flaws, it also meant that he had no chance to investigate the situation on Heart Island in detail.
Seeing the change in the expression on "Lu Xin"'s face, the ghost marquis Lu said: "Why, after going out to the wild for two years, you are starting to become restless? Now the ghost marquis of the heart island have gone out to tap the young generation who think they have potential, and now there are almost no other hungry ghosts on this heart island except for you and me, my grandfather and grandson, and those hungry ghosts who are in charge of patrolling." So, there's no one to play with you for the next year, so be honest with me. ”
There was still hesitation on his face, and "Lu Xin" at this moment looked like a junior who couldn't take his heart after going out, and asked: "Then grandpa, can I still go to the inner ring during this year?"
"Lu Xin" said this, although he showed a playful appearance, but he also hoped to win the opportunity to go out. After all, he felt that it was extremely meaningful for him to have the opportunity to communicate with the Daoists in the organization in the next year.
It's a pity that the ghost Hou Lu shook his head and said, "It seems that you are doing well in the inner ring, and your heart has already flew." ”
Scratching his head, "Lu Xin" said a little shyly: "Ghost Hou Jiang and Jiang Bao'er brothers are very good to their grandchildren. In just a few words, "Lu Xin" naturally earned some good images for the Jiang family in front of the ghost Hou Lu.
"Hmph, I'm afraid you've received a lot of benefits from others. Forget it, anyway, you give me a good retreat for the next year. As for the waste junior of the Jiang family, I will let him participate in this inheritance ceremony, even if it is to return the favor of the Jiang family. With a wave of his hand, Ghost Hou Lu said resolutely.
