Chapter 70: Silver becomes gold, the more terrifying money to buy life Outside the wall of Linjiangsi, there is a brocade bag hanging. Inside was the talisman that Lin Yan had just given to the little girl from the Zhou family. Just as Lin Yan expected, the talisman made by Mr. Lu obviously had a great restraining effect on the lantern. So, he gave the talisman to the little girl and passed it to Yang Zhubu. With the talisman in hand, the lantern really followed the "life-saving money" and broke into Linjiangsi. Even the willow branch night lamp hanging at the door could not stop the eerie wind from the strange light. "I thought it was very powerful, but it only has ten strands of evil spirits. It is stronger than ordinary wandering ghosts, but far weaker than evil spirits." Thinking this, Lin Yan put the brocade bag in his arms. He considers himself to be a cautious person, steady and careful, and he makes plans before taking action.
So he did not become too conceited, but asked the little girl to tell Yang Zhubu to hang the talisman on the wall. Once the mystery behind this "life-saving money" is beyond his ability to cope with, he can escape from the crisis with the help of Lu Gong's talisman. But this was just for the sake of caution. In fact, Lin Yan did not think that he would be unable to deal with the mystery behind the life-saving money after losing Lu Gong's talisman. First, if a demon that is too powerful enters Gaoliu City, even if the Guantian Tower cannot detect it, Liu Zun will definitely be able to sense the threat. Therefore, the evil spirits that often enter Gaoliu City are not a threat to Liu Zun. Second, when Mr. Lu’s talisman was on him, the mystery behind the money for buying his life did not even dare to show up. In other words, with just a magic talisman from Lord Lu, he can be subdued! This proves that this thing may be extremely terrifying, but at least for those in the Refining Essence Realm, it is not powerful enough to cause despair. "This lantern is indeed extremely strange. Although it does not have much evil energy, and is not even as strong as an evil spirit, the way it takes a person's life is completely different from the way other evil spirits harm people." Lin Yan thought back to the fight just now. It didn't take much effort for him to destroy the lantern. But if it were someone else, even a warrior at the peak of his internal strength would probably fall here and have his energy sucked out. Furthermore, wherever the lantern light shone, the air turned into vines and attacked. Faced with the vaporized vines, Lin Yan had to use his magic power to suppress demons to destroy them. If you change to the Essence Refining Realm, you have to sacrifice your own essence and blood, and use masculine energy to break it! "Come to think of it, this lantern is not weak either, it just met me." Thinking this, Lin Yan walked towards Linjiang Division. However, just as he was about to enter the door, he suddenly felt the sound of wind above his head. He took a half step back and didn't reach out to take it this time. I saw two pieces of gold falling in front of me, making a sound, and rolling at my feet. "..."
Lin Yan was silent for a moment, his eyes cold. He glanced left and right, but saw no movement on either side of the street. After a while, Lin Yan picked up the two gold bars and sneered, "Is this really going to never end? Damn it, you're still using fake gold?" Previously, one ingot of gold was not enough to buy life, but this time two ingots of gold were used? The questions are all fake! Lin Yan weighed the gold, put it away, and whispered, "Okay, I want to see how many strange lanterns there are in Gaoliu City!" I knew the gold was fake, so I subconsciously wanted to kick it aside. But suddenly I thought that if someone else picked up this gold, it would be like a death warrant. More importantly, once you have the gold, lanterns will come to you, and each lantern carries ten wisps of evil spirits! Converted into the price of a medicinal bath, that’s eighty taels of silver! Two ingots of gold, maybe two lanterns! "One hundred and sixty taels is equivalent to Liang Hu's wealth." Thinking of this, Lin Yan hung the brocade bag containing Lu Gong's talisman by the door. He turned and walked out of the street, drew his sword, and said slowly: "Come again! I'm waiting for you!" But after a while, the strange light did not come. But a team of city defense soldiers arrived. It was the unusual phenomenon on the street that was noticed by the Observatory, so they burned smoke to send a message and inform the city's defenders. Because of the strange creatures involved and the previous experience of the night watchman, each of the city defenders tonight held a willow branch night lamp in their hands and had incense ash hanging around their waists. A large number of night lights illuminate the street. Lin Yan knew immediately that the strange light would not come again tonight. "It seems that it's not that the willow branch night light is useless, but that the ordinary willow branch night light is not enough to deter the strange lamp." "If there are enough willow branch lights and they are gathered together, they can barely keep the place under control." "If the branches of Liu Zun's body were used to make a night lamp, I believe that with just one lamp, I would be able to completely suppress the strange lamp." This thought arose in Lin Yan’s mind. - It's dawn. Mr. Lu's carriage actually arrived at Linjiangsi in person. Knowing that Lin Yan was fine, relief was evident on his old and tired face. "What's going on?" Mr. Lu came to the front of the hall, looked at Lin Yan and asked. Seeing that he looked exhausted, Lin Yan was about to speak, but saw Mr. Lu waving his hand again. "I won't rest until things are clear." "..."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan told Mr. Lu everything that happened at night. "You mean, if you take the money to buy your life, you will attract the ghost lantern?" Mr. Lu's eyes became serious, and he said, "Moreover, this money for buying life will absorb the essence of the human body invisibly, making the flame of the strange lamp stronger?" Lin Yan nodded and said, "That's exactly what happened last night." Mr. Lu's face darkened slightly, and he told Lin Yan about his conversation with the twelve temple priests in Liu Zun Temple. "Do you think that the 'life-buying money' has made a comeback?" Lin Yan said: "But I heard from Chief Yang that the money used to buy his life was silver, but now it has turned into gold." "Silver turns into gold, which is more valuable in the eyes of the world. This proves that this 'life-buying money' has become more powerful after more than ten years." Mr. Lu said slowly: "This kind of 'thing' has a 'real body', but it is not a monster, nor is it an evil spirit, but it is similar to an evil spirit... It is called a weird thing!" "The origin of this strange thing has not yet been fully understood in Qifeng City." "But they are not dead things. As time goes by, they will also grow stronger and stronger." "As you said, if this 'weird lamp' devours too many people, then its light will grow stronger, and become more powerful and terrifying." Having said this, Mr. Lu's expression became extremely solemn. Ever since Lin Yan met Mr. Lu, the old man has always been calm and indifferent, as if everything is under his control. This was the first time Lin Yan saw the old man with such a complicated and heavy expression. "For the specific situation, we have to wait for the Heavenly Supervisor in Qifeng City to transfer the files over." Mr. Lu said this, but when he looked at Lin Yan, he said, "But he has completely set his sights on you." (End of this chapter)
