Chapter 197 The storm is coming
Among the four major Xuan clans, the Tantai clan sits firmly on the throne. Over the years, their Dao root bloodline has been diluted, and it is difficult to produce one in two generations. The probability of having a Dao root is even rarer than that of the Rong family. Therefore, they have gradually ignored the affairs of the Xuan clan, and the second-ranked Gong family has taken the lead.
As soon as Gong Tinglan's order to become the young master came out, elders from several families came to discuss important matters. As expected, when they heard that a powerful evil spirit was about to be born, some people became greedy and wanted to capture it to control it. As for the fact that it was neither alive nor dead, it did not matter, they could just set up a large formation to suppress it.
Such a naive idea made Gong Qi, who insisted on cheating and attending the meeting, unable to help but lose his temper on the spot and curse like a string of cannonballs. After Gong Tinglan's explanation of the pros and cons, those people finally gave up the idea of keeping the evil spirits. But it was hard to say whether they were really willing to give up.
As soon as the Black Xuan Order of the Xuan Clan came out, each clan sent out their disciples with medium to high cultivation levels to encircle and eliminate the zombies and prevent evil from entering the world.
As time was running out and the zombies were hard to find at the moment, Gong Tinglan set up an altar and used the Dayan technique to divine the location of the zombies and evil spirits. It took a lot of his mental energy and cultivation to get the result, which pointed directly to the southwest. If he went down the canal, he could find their trace on two knife-shaped mountains.
Gong Qi was different. He went straight back to Wujing and first ran to the palace with the Xuanling. Then he got the imperial decree and asked Shen Qinghe to lead people to surround the princess's mansion and Cong's family. He didn't even find any excuses. He just said that Cong's husband used the art of witchcraft to murder the princess. He wanted to capture Cong's husband alive so that he could get from him where the corpses were hidden.
Simple, crude, domineering and direct.
As a result, it turned out that the princess was not a princess, but an impostor in a human's mask. The real Princess Chao'an disappeared, and the current prince consort was not a prince consort either, but an impostor as well, because the prince consort's family presented evidence of his family's injustice, a prince consort who had already died.
The prince consort died and there is an imposter taking his place. You didn't report it to the police but hid it and waited until the news came out before you cried out for justice. There must be something fishy going on. Investigate it.
Gong Qi didn't use the officials' method of questioning and presenting evidence, nor did he care about the laws of his family. He just rushed around recklessly, as if he was not going to reason with you and was the one who was right.
Anyway, in the eyes of many people, the Xuan clan is not easy to offend, and he is also a well-known bully among the clans. As the saying goes, too many lice will not itch, so it doesn't matter if there is one more accusation that all the Xuan clan members are domineering and tyrannical.
As a result, hey, the Cong family also built a dark room in the ancestral hall?
Shen Qinghe followed him with red eyes. Although he knew that he had his reasons and had to put on this show, if every real person in the Xuan Clan was like him, breaking into the homes of the rich and powerful and common people and causing chaos without any evidence, then would the world still need officials to govern?
Seeing his gloomy face, Gong Qi felt guilty and said angrily, "I am not unreasonable at ordinary times."
Shen Qinghe said meaningfully: "If one person is unreasonable, we can still control him. But if all the Xuan people are like this, relying on their status and abilities to disregard the laws and rules, then this world will be in chaos."
The world abides by rules. Laws are shackles that bind people, but they are also armor that protects people and their country. If the Xuan people ignore them, they will disrupt the order, shake the foundation of the country, and it is a serious crime.
Gong Qi bowed and said, "I am grateful for your guidance."
Shen Qinghe said in a cold voice: "To shake the foundation of the country, to cause unrest in the world, and to make the people suffer, no matter who you are, you will only be infamous for eternity. It is unacceptable to heaven. I hope you and I can encourage each other."
After he said that, he walked towards his family’s ancestral hall.
Gong Qi smiled bitterly, he was indeed Shen Qingtian, upright and righteous.
The news that Princess Chao'an's mansion and Cong's home were surrounded spread, which made people even more disturbing, especially when some people saw people wearing Xuan clan costumes coming in and out, which made people even more frightened.
Princess Chaoan also went to the Huguo Temple on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Could it be related to the incident involving the young lady from the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion?
The storm is coming and dark clouds are covering the city.
After watching this wonderful show at home, Apia thought of the information he had obtained by entering his family members' dreams and using nightmare magic in recent days without sleep. He took a look at the ancestral hall of his family and snorted.
He escaped really fast. He left his home and went to Kaiping Marquis Mansion, accurately found the small courtyard of Lang Jiuchuan, sat on the roof of the study, and took in the entire layout of the Lang family.
Suddenly, he felt the five elements surging around him, and he quickly jumped away, looking at the study from the top of the wall.
Wow, he even set up a formation for this.
The door of Lang Jiuchuan's study opened. She stood at the door and looked at the ghost standing on the wall of the yard and said, "Come in."
In the courtyard.
Xiaoman, who had just come out of the kitchen, shivered. Why is it colder today than yesterday? By the way, was the girl talking to her just now?
Apia entered Lang Jiuchuan's study, carefully looked at her face, and nodded secretly: "It seems that she has been doing well in recent days."
Thanks to the Little Nine Towers and the protection of Master Basil, his damaged soul was nourished in just a few days, and he didn't suffer as miserably as if he had been punished by heaven.
Lang Jiuchuan blew a little nine tower in his heart, and seeing that his soul was a little weak, he asked: "What have you been doing? Why are you so weak?"
"I'm just helping you find out about your family." Pia said unhappily, "I've spent a lot of my soul energy on this."
Lang Jiuchuan walked to the table after hearing this, took out two soul incense sticks, lit them, and placed them in front of each other: "Speak."
Apia took a few greedy puffs and it still tasted the same. She was considered a good person.
He said, "Except for the few people who have been staying in the Imperial Observatory, I cannot go. I entered the dreams of several masters of the Cong family and cast a nightmare spell. I learned from the Cong family's wife that Cong Fu Ma actually has a twin brother, but to the outside world, she only gave birth to Cong Jinling, and the other brother has been raised outside. The only people who know about this are the couple and Cong Jinling's grandfather, and it's not even listed in the family tree..."
"Is he the zombie?"
Apia's mouth twitched and he met her gaze. The other party seemed to be saying, if it's not the case, there's no need to say all this nonsense.
"I just want to talk about the conspiracy from home first."
"I know the Cong family is not innocent. Even if they are not the mastermind, they are accomplices. I don't care about these. What I want is actually the information about who the zombie is and where he is hiding now." Lang Jiuchuan said helplessly, "Leave the conspiracy theory to the Xuan clan and leave it to the government to solve the case. We just need to be more precise."
Well, there's nothing wrong with that.
"The ancestor of the Cong family seems to be still alive and has been hiding in the Cong family ancestral hall. There is a secret room under the ancestral hall that leads to the outside of the city. I also saw it in Zhou's nightmare. I went to check it out, but he had already run away." Apia said, "The real Cong Prince Consort died a long time ago. The one who appeared in front of people these days is his twin brother. As for the zombie..."
He thought of the nightmare of his grandfather and said in a deep voice, "That corpse must be the biological son of the ancestor of the Cong family, and he has never appeared in the family tree."
Lang Jiuchuan's eyes turned cold. His biological son, the ancestor is still alive, but his biological son is a zombie. Does that mean the father killed his son?
This is not a good article. Ahhhhh, please give me some inspiration to enlighten me.
