Chapter 194 Asking the City God at Night "Zhenwu's command." As the fox man watched the scarlet lightning fall, he heard an extremely cold voice of truth in his ears. Faced with the sudden and unreasonable Zhenwu sword light, the fox man seemed to be prepared, and the three red tails behind him suddenly condensed. 'clang!!' It was clearly the contact between flesh and blood and the wooden sword, but it made a sound of metal clashing. For a moment, true Qi raged and lightning spread. When the dust settled, one could see that the Zhenwu sword in Jiang Lin's hand was held up by three fiery red fox tails put together. Although the tail was covered with charred marks, it was not cut off after all. Jiang Lin was not surprised at all. He had already seen through the background of the fox in front of him. This is not a demon, but an elf. Just like Fellow Daoist Bai, it follows the path of righteousness.
Moreover, his level of Taoism is definitely not low, otherwise, even without the natural restraint bonus of the Zhenwu Sword against evil monsters, it would be impossible for him to be blocked at such a small price. After slashing out with the sword, Jiang Lin did not take any more action. He put away the Zhenwu sword in his hand, but there was still a dark golden light in his eyes. "Go away, I don't want to bother with you." After Jiang Lin finished speaking, he turned and left. Elves who have followed the path of correction are rare to begin with, and even fewer who can form a tribe. Among them, there are only a few members of the fox clan. Moreover, in the brief fight just now, Jiang Lin sensed a very transcendent aura from the fox. The blessing from... the destiny of the human race, although extremely weak, only a tiny bit, is already transcendent enough. This made Jiang Lin think a lot. Although I don't know what the other party wants to do, why does he come to cause trouble for me so suddenly? But Jiang Lin doesn't have the mind to care about these things now. So Jiang Lin chose to warn and then leave. But if I catch up again, then... The fox man had no intention of stopping him. He watched the rising famous Black Law Mage leave with his peach blossom eyes, and the arrogance and contempt that he had worked so hard to maintain could no longer be suppressed. "Phew... I'm so scared, so scared..." The man patted his chest frantically to calm his pounding heart. "Although I know this is a risky job and I have taken precautions in advance, this is too..." The fox man wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead with lingering fear and looked at his tail with heartache. "I have been cultivating my destiny for two hundred years..."
Just one sword strike actually cut off about 10% of his spiritual energy. And it can be seen that this is not the full strength of Master Jiang. This sword is just a warning. Even though he knew from the beginning that if he treated Master Jiang with the attitude he had just used, he would inevitably face a thunderous counterattack. But he never expected that the other party would be so brutal. "But the goal should have been achieved?" The fox man murmured thoughtfully, "When the other party has the least time to be distracted, show up with an attitude that is almost humiliating." As he said that, he turned his head and looked towards the empty space, saying, "Elder, in this case, even if the young master shows up, I don't think there will be a good result, right?" Before he finished speaking, there was a floating sound in the void, and a hunchbacked old man in a bright red sacrificial robe slowly emerged. The old man had been staying here the whole time, but Jiang Lin didn't notice anything from beginning to end. "almost." The elder nodded slowly and said, "You also know what kind of personality our young master has." "Master Jiang has already formed a preconceived notion. Even if we meet, he will definitely fight back fiercely." "You did a good job. You will get your reward when you return to the mountain." The last sentence was directed to the fox man. The latter's face lit up with joy, but not because of the so-called reward, but because he could finally return to the mountain and no longer have to stay in this corrupt world, let alone face the Black Law Mage who would draw his knife and chop at him at the slightest disagreement. Before leaving, he looked at the elder curiously and asked, "Elder, are we being too hasty?" "Shouldn't the young master still be in the capital of Zhou? In addition, this mage has the blessing of Fengdu, so her whereabouts are difficult to track down. It will take her at least five or six days to find you, right?" Hearing this, the elder shook his head helplessly and said, "That girl has found the yarrow master of the clan. You know, if you don't obey her, you won't have a good life." As he spoke, the elder's expression changed. He looked in the direction where Jiang Lin left, smiled bitterly, and said, "It's not that we acted too early, but we almost didn't make it in time. That girl... is already here." ………… Jiang Lin raised his eyes and saw the City God Temple of Yangzhou Prefecture in front of him. He straightened his clothes and put away the Fengdu Jiuquan Order in the pouch on his forearm. It is worth mentioning that after the Kyoto Incident was quelled, Jiang Lin's "sentence" had ended, the Fengdu Jiuquan Order had been restored, and the two marshals Che and Xia had left. Jiang Lin did all this not because he had any great respect for the City God, but because it was clearly stipulated in the black law. "call……" However, just as Jiang Lin was about to step into the City God Temple, a burst of energy suddenly floated behind him. Jiang Lin frowned, stopped, and a look of impatience appeared on his face. Are these foxes endless? Jiang Lin turned around and looked not far away with a frown.
I saw a red shadow quietly emerging. It was a young girl, standing quietly in the dark. The most eye-catching thing about her was her pair of phoenix eyes, which were naturally charming. If we say that Zhou Mei has a seductive look and a charming demeanor, she has taken charm to a certain extent. So, if the girl in front of her were to be compared with Zhou Mei, it would be an insult to her. This is also a fox. There was a cold light flashing in Jiang Lin's eyes, and a flash of lightning appeared in his hand. "Taoist Master." The girl in red was not panicked. Instead, she smiled and bowed actively. There was a slight smile in her tone, as if she was a lady from a wealthy family, calm and unhurried. "Perhaps the Taoist priest has some misunderstandings about me." The red-dressed girl tilted her head and smiled, "Master, please go and do your own thing first. I will wait here. After you finish your work, I will explain to you." "How about you give me a chance, Taoist priest?" As she spoke, she took a few steps back to show that she was harmless. Jiang Lin looked at her deeply, said nothing, then turned and walked into the City God Temple. The girl in red stared at his back, her eyes sparkling, as if she was reminded of some memories. She stood there in a daze until Jiang Lin's figure completely disappeared. "call……" The girl in red suddenly "collapsed". Her original appearance of a lady from a noble family was gone, and she looked more like a naughty child. At the same time, she seemed to remember something and looked around viciously. "Old man, come out!" The girl in red put her hands on her hips and looked around with her bright eyes, as if she was looking for something. In secret, the elder hid in the void, ignoring the "rebuke" from his young master. He is a little dumbfounded now. The elder frantically recalled what his young master had just done. Is that gentle, well-mannered, and polite girl, like a lady from a noble family, really the young master of our family? Moreover, the plan of himself and others seemed to have... failed? This girl kept clamoring to go down the mountain, but later it was discovered that this girl wanted to go down the mountain to find the "little brother" from before. All of a sudden, even the secluded elders were blown out. After investigation, it was discovered that this happened when the girl went down the mountain to survive the tribulation.
And that "little brother" is now the only successor of the Black Law lineage in the world. Once this identity was revealed, the elders of the clan, who had originally disagreed with the girl leaving the mountain, became even more resistant. Are you kidding? That's Master Heilu. Although it would not be difficult for my grandmother to talk to the guy from Ziweiyuan, she still kept her distance from Master Heilu. However, the girl's mind was as strong as iron and could not be stopped at all. If she was forcibly detained, she would fight to the death. But the ancestor loved this girl the most and even gave her the surname "Si". Therefore, since they couldn't stop them, the elders thought of another way. According to the investigation of the elders, the little wizard Jiang in the human world is soft-hearted and acts cruelly and brutally. That’s why the dragon god delivered the message before and the fox blocked the way just now. The purpose is to give this young mage Jiang a preconceived notion—the so-called young master is no good. Coupled with the young master's unruly temper, when the two of them collide, it will be like pouring oil and water, and they will explode at any time. Although the plan was known to his young master, the elder thought that no matter what, the young master would not explain these things. After all, he had developed a proud character since he was a child. However, the facts left the elder dumbfounded. Not only did our young master give in, but he also took a big step back on his own initiative! Girl, is it just a one-time encounter that has caused you to fall to this level? The elder sighed inwardly and remained silent for a while. Seeing that the old man was not called out, the girl in red did not force him, but just looked at the City God Temple not far away with some hope. "It's okay, it hasn't been too long." The girl in red covered her chest and murmured to herself in fear, "I hope my brother won't misunderstand me..." The elder in the dark closed his eyes in despair. the other side. Jiang Lin walked into the City God Temple. Jiang Lin temporarily put aside the fox girl who suddenly appeared and didn't pay too much attention to her. She seemed to be the "young master" that the Great Dragon God had conveyed and the fox that had just blocked the road mentioned. But what does misunderstanding mean? Could it be that whether it was the Dragon God delivering the message or the fox blocking the way, neither was it the young master's instruction? But if that’s the case, what is the purpose of this group of foxes? As for his specific identity and origin, Jiang Lin already had some guesses. But right now, none of that matters. Jiang Lin thought to himself and looked up. In front of him was the majestic statue of the City God. "The city god of this place has appeared to see me." Jiang Lin spoke lightly, his eyes flashing with gilded black light.
'Om...' Almost as soon as Jiang Lin finished speaking, the statue shook, projected a divine light, and turned into a door. A middle-aged man wearing the standard red official uniform of the underworld walked out. "Yangzhou City God, I am honored to meet you. I did not come to greet you from afar. I hope you will not be offended." The City God bowed meticulously, turned sideways, and raised his hand to give instructions. "Please serve tea to Huang Ju." Jiang Lin did not move when he heard this. He just asked, "Dragon King of Slender West Lake, bring all the files to me, no matter how big or small." The positioning of the City God is very special, being located at the junction of the world of the living and the world of the dead. Generally speaking, the City God and the Dragon King are two parallel lines and have little interaction. However, the City God's Mansion has a duty, or divine authority, which is to record the changes and information of local gods and immortals. The City God himself is not qualified to view these things, which are classified as "top secret file cabinets." However, Jiang Lin is naturally qualified to investigate these things. "Yes." Upon seeing this, the City God of Yangzhou, without any nonsense, invited Jiang Lin into the small world of gods in the City God's Palace, and then led Jiang Lin to an attic. "Master, inside is the information and changes of all the immortals and gods in Yangzhou. I am not allowed to enter without permission. Please leave by yourself." "Ah." Jiang Lin nodded and walked to the front of the attic. From his forearm, Fengdu Jiuquan's command emitted a stream of energy that landed on the door of the attic. The next moment, the door opened wide. Under the gaze of the Yangzhou City God, Jiang Lin walked into the attic. Behind him, the City God of Yangzhou looked a little uneasy. Although this wizard came straight to the point and had nothing to do with him, the last time he received the Black Law Wizard was last time, and he didn't know if he had made any mistakes in the reception just now. Seeing that he had nothing to do with it, the City God finally breathed a sigh of relief, but still stood guard at the door. Inside the attic. Jiang Lin looked at the countless documents in front of him and closed his eyes to sense them. Soon, as the pages of the book turned, information about the Old Dragon King of Slender West Lake appeared in front of Jiang Lin. Jiang Lin just glanced at the information about the old Dragon King and skipped it, because according to the records in the files, the old Dragon King was a water god who was loyal to his duties, almost never made mistakes, and treated his duties meticulously. Jiang Lin's focus is on the old Dragon King's family. That is the Dragon Mother and Dragon Daughter who had been beheaded. What we are looking at now is naturally the latter.
This dragon girl is the only daughter and only descendant of the old dragon king, which is very rare among the dragon clan. There are not many, or very few, records about the Dragon Girl in the files. After all, this is not a real immortal god, but just the son of an immortal god. Jiang Lin glanced through the pitifully few records and his eyes fell on the last two. "In the winter of the eleventh year of Zhizheng, this dragon girl appeared, stirred up the lake water, flew away, and headed westward." Another one is... "In the spring of the fifteenth year of Zhizheng, he flew over Yangzhou and went westward, accompanied by a black python." These two records have some connotation of accusation, because immortals and gods in the world are forbidden to appear before humans without reason. Of course, some sacrifices to gods are not included, and saving people does not count. But this dragon girl obviously didn't do that for these reasons. "Going from the west..." Jiang Lin blinked thoughtfully and walked out of the attic. The City God of Yangzhou Prefecture immediately came to greet him. "Where is it west of Yangzhou?" Jiang Lin asked concisely. "Master, there is no magical blessed land to the west, but..." The City God said hesitantly, "From Yangzhou to the west, the most famous place is a Taoist temple called Shuntian Temple." "This temple is not under my jurisdiction, but I have heard that it is a Taoist temple that is very effective in finding marriages and having children." "The deity enshrined inside is the Red God of Happiness." Jiang Lin didn't say anything when he heard this. He just took note of it silently and then turned and left. "Farewell, Master." The City God of Yangzhou didn't breathe a sigh of relief until Jiang Lin left the City God Temple. Jiang Lin walked out of the City God Temple and looked up, only to see that the girl in red had been waiting there just as she had said. (End of this chapter)
