Chapter 618: First Arrival at Linhai

Linhai, the whole city is in mourning, but it can't hide the spring flowers, the gentle breeze and the warm sun.

The carriage passed through the long and wide streets, turned into the North City where the noble families gathered, and stopped in front of a rather luxurious inn after turning seven or eight times. Meng Qi, Madam Baihua and Yingning then moved into the booked guest room.

In the middle of the night, led by Madam Baihua, they quietly sneaked to the front of a certain sprawling mansion, passed through the half-opened small door and the half-open formation, and entered an embroidered building in the back garden under the guidance of a taciturn servant.

"We will hide here for the time being." After packing up, Madam Baihua looked at Meng Qi with a charming smile, and Yingning stood behind her.

Meng Qi nodded slightly, without commenting.

On the way here, Yingning did not make any seductive moves. Instead, she acted like a lady from a noble family, dodging and shying, giving people a feeling of being close yet distant, affectionate yet conservative. She grasped the scale very well, neither cold and evasive, nor enthusiastic and flattering, which devalued expectations.

In this regard, Meng Qi only admired with a scrutinizing eye, without any active behavior, making many of Madam Baihua and Yingning's actions with hidden meanings go to waste.

Madam Baihua stood by the window, looking at the colorful gardens and said, "Mr. Dushou, do you know whose house this is?"

"I would like to hear more." Meng Qi walked to the window with his hands behind his back.

"Haha, we hide here, no one can think of it. Even if we do something in Linhai, as long as we are not caught or pursued on the spot, no one will suspect this place." Madam Baihua smiled and swayed slightly, extremely beautiful, "It is the ancestral home of the Zhu family."

"Zhu family..." Meng Qi did not hide his surprise.

Before the Yun family became prosperous, the ancestors of the Zhu and Tie families were already servants. After that, the two families followed each other for generations, loyally, and shared the rise and fall. Even if they were granted freedom and established their own families, they still regarded themselves as servants, always serving as the left and right leaders of the Yun family's secret guards, only obeying the orders of the head of the family and not interfering in the family's internal affairs. They have always been considered one of the pillars of the Yun family.

In this Yun family dispute, they stayed out of the outside world and were an important target for all parties to fight for and win over.

Such families have colluded with evil demons?

When Meng Qi was lamenting that flowers do not last forever, Madam Baihua explained: "The Zhu family has secretly served Yun Jiuye Yun Feiyang. He arranged for us to hide here. The Zhu family does not know our specific identities."

So that's it... Meng Qi suddenly realized: "We support Yun Jiuye?"

The children of the Yun family who are qualified to compete are actually not the children and grandchildren of Grandpa Yun, but the great-grandchildren. He lived too long and almost outlived two generations. The correct name at home is "Grandpa Yun".

Master Yun Jiu is a very important contender among the children of this generation. He is a legitimate son, about sixty years old, and has the fifth-level cultivation. If he did not have a legitimate brother, Master Yun Er, Yun Feihu, he would be an excellent candidate for the head of the family.

In addition to the two brothers, there are two contenders, Master Yun Liu and Master Yun Shisan. The former is seventy years old and the sixth level. He was once in the top ten of the human list and has a high chance of being promoted to a master. His grandfather's generation is also considered a legitimate son. His status is not much worse than Yun Er and Yun Jiu, but his strength and potential are greater. For the Yun family, which is closer to the customs of the East China Sea, this is the best candidate.

Master Yun Shisan is the father of Miss Yun Qi. Because the family is more male than female and has very few daughters, Miss Yun Qi is favored by Old Master Yun. He is valued by the old man and he is also very competitive. He is fair and smooth. His own strength is not bad. He has already stepped over the first level of the ladder in his early fifties. In the past ten years, he has been the actual host of the family's affairs. He is considered to be the candidate for the head of the family deliberately cultivated by Old Master Yun.

Hearing Meng Qi's question, Madam Baihua chuckled and said, "Master Yun Jiu is generous and generous, and he values ​​friendship and loyalty, especially to his confidante."

That's all, no need to say more!

In the next few days, Madam Baihua and Yingning often went out, their whereabouts were secretive, and Meng Qi watched from the sidelines, not impatient or curious, and concentrated on cultivation.

The biggest advantage of ascending to heaven in one step is that you can initially think about the path. The resonance and induction of certain laws of the inner world and the outer world are the strongest, that is, the closest to the law. This can save a lot of time and effort when operating the law, interweaving or initially integrating the law, and avoid many detours, so as not to encounter bottlenecks. Therefore, when crossing the first two levels of the ladder, people can get twice the result with half the effort!

The acupoints were opened, the inner scene was operated secretly, and the law was revealed. The area around Meng Qi became dark and extremely terrifying. Through the changes in his inner world caused by external interference, he could distinguish and sense the seemingly unchanging laws and understand the law and principles contained therein.

Four days later, Madam Baihua brought Yingning and knocked on Meng Qi's door.

"Mr. Dushou is really patient. He neither asks about the development of Linhai nor asks about our arrangements or what we are doing." Madam Baihua looked at Meng Qi, who opened the door calmly, with a "sad face". His slightly frosty vicissitudes made him seem to be always calm and composed.

Meng Qi glanced at them and chuckled: "The Yun family has nothing to do with me. It doesn't matter to me who can become the head of the family. There is no need to worry."

"As for you ladies, you will definitely not pin your hopes on an outsider like me for such an important matter. I believe there are other helpers. I just need to do what you ask. Miss Yingning, am I right?"

He switched between "someone" and "old man", depending on the person, and Yingning blushed immediately.

Madam Baihua took her with her whenever she did anything. This girl is not simple... Meng Qi looked away and looked at Madam Baihua.

"Mr. Dushou has integrated Buddhism with magic skills, and his character is really outstanding." Madam Baihua praised him sincerely or falsely, "Today, I need your help."

"What is it?" Meng Qi turned around and let the two women enter the room.

Madam Baihua smiled and said, "The boy that Zhuihun is looking for has appeared."

"Him?" Meng Qi walked to the window with his hands behind his back.

"Yes, although he is a left-winger, his evil deeds are not obvious. He has a wide range of friends and some friendships with many righteous outer scenes. Therefore, I don't know when he secretly sneaked into Linhai and secretly met with the outer scenes of the Tie family and the Zhu family. It is said that the old man's death was not a natural death, but was assassinated by someone. I ask them to report to Donghai Sword Manor and investigate the matter thoroughly before deciding the head of the family." Madam Baihua restrained her smile and was quite serious.

"Old Master Yun was assassinated and died of old age?" Meng Qi seemed surprised, but actually curious. He, a "pill seller", could detect the problem, but how did this inexplicable boy know it?

Could it be that there were obvious traces at the time? If so, why didn't others see it?

Madam Baihua frowned with her thin eyebrows: "He said that the masters at the first level have a clear grasp of their own lifespans, and they will have a premonition when the end comes, such as building a tomb in advance, such as arranging funeral affairs, but why would a figure like Old Master Yun suddenly die of old age without designating a family head, causing the Yun family to fall into disputes?"

"Maybe someone deliberately destroyed these because it was not good for him?" Meng Qi raised a doubt.

And the biggest doubt in his heart was that it sounded like no one knew that Old Master Yun bought two longevity pills, and it was impossible for him to die of old age recently!

What's going on?

Ying Ning interrupted and said, "He said he had strong evidence and was just waiting to throw it out at the critical moment, so the heads of the Tie and Zhu families were skeptical."

"What do you want me to do?" Meng Qi looked at Ying Ning and said.

"Ask Mr. Dushou to deal with Wu Hengjian." Madam Baihua smiled again, "But don't kill him. It's better to give him the illusion that he finally escaped after trying his best."

"Wu Hengjian? Don't kill him?" Meng Qi walked back with his hands behind his back.

Ying Ning said, "He has always called himself Wu Hengjian, but it's unknown whether it's his real name."

Madam Baihua smiled charmingly and said, "What's the point of killing this kind of kid who just entered the field? Just scare him and let him think that someone can't wait to kill him. It's good to muddy the water."

"Is this leading to the others?" Meng Qi smiled slightly, not surprised, and didn't care.

Madam Baihua blinked and looked at Meng Qi: "Mr. Dushou said that, right?"

Meng Qi did not ask further questions, but laughed: "Wu Hengjian can avoid the pursuit of the soul chasers. Isn't he a careless person? How can his whereabouts be easily exposed?"

The premise of taking action is to find someone!

"Someone will reveal his hiding place." Madam Baihua smiled charmingly.

"Who is it?" Meng Qi asked casually.

"Mr. Yun Thirteen." Madam Baihua looked at Meng Qi with a smile, as if waiting for his surprise.

Meng Qi smiled and said calmly: "It's really unexpected."

How many people in the Yun family are involved with Yingning's group of guys who are suspected to be Su Nudao?

…………

The rain is heavy, and early summer is coming.

Wu Hengjian, wearing a black robe, walked under the eaves on both sides, as fast as a ghost, flashing away, and sometimes performing escape techniques to change his position to prevent being followed.

The rain hit the stone slabs of the long street, bringing a kind of tranquility that isolates the world.

Wu Hengjian slowed down his pace slightly, thinking of his own plan. When the news spread, the mastermind behind the scenes would surely be restless and would come to kill him. At that time, he would deliberately spread the news and set up an ambush, so that he could catch the turtle in the jar. It would be best if he could lure in the group of Soul Chaser and the others and solve the problem with their help!

In this way, he could not only solve the Yun family's affairs, but also get rid of his own difficulties!

Suddenly, he saw a man walking slowly in the rain like a waterfall. He was wearing a green robe, his temples were white, and he was holding an oil-paper umbrella in his hand. He looked like a middle-aged scholar who was inspired by the heavy rain and strolled. But his vicissitudes and elegance were unforgettable.

As soon as he saw this man, Wu Hengjian's heart was alert. He felt that the rain faded, the dark clouds disappeared, and the long street disappeared. There was only himself and the green-robed man with strange charm in front of him between heaven and earth!

The man behind the scenes?

Left-handed troll?
