"This..." Wu Jinluan's face changed drastically.
Just when we were about to leave the underworld, Xu Jian followed us up. After all, the whole underworld was under the jurisdiction of Xiyang Ju, and everywhere were their eyes.
Xu Jin didn't ask me where I was going; he just respectfully followed along.
When we went out, there was still an old man sitting there at the staircase, just like before.
The obvious change was that he used to look at our talisman, but now he would only nod slightly respectfully.
Exiting the theater, I immediately instructed Xu Jin to arrange someone to drive a car and take us to the Changfeng Temple. And I asked Xu Jin, are the people they've arranged for the trip to Changfeng Temple reliable?
"Not a big problem, they just arrived at the place, it's not long ago yet." Xu Jin chuckled and he led us onto the car. After making a phone call, a minute or two later, another person came to take charge of driving us.
After losing his arm, Xu Jin was always inconvenient when doing things.
The sky was still dark, but there was no moon, and it was so dark that it caused an unsettling restlessness.
"The sky is going to lighten up, and ghosts will be troublesome. Xiao Wu, remember this: no matter what, it's important to keep Master first. Lao Han cannot leave Jinyang, but if he insists on leaving, we can't do anything. Lao Mao just did a half-flipped divination, and all kinds of schemes and problems are in there. At this time, it's probably also calculated. If that happens, we really have no way out." Lao Gou's words were clearer.
"..?" Wu Jinluan was particularly uneasy.
The same goes for him; he doesn't know the details. For Lao Gong to speak like this is equivalent to directly stating that Mao San wants to harm people. To Wu Jinlan, this is very abrupt.
However, Lao Gou didn't want to explain too much, and he just kept staring out the window.
"Big guy, contact the people of the underworld. How about now?" Lao Gong suddenly ordered Xu Jin to make a phone call.
Xu Jin immediately copied.
"Weird... it doesn't ring."
Xu Jin made several calls in succession, but none of them were answered.
"This old rascal changed his mind while walking, went up the mountain, and found something to his liking. This is the problem with the half divination. He can't predict what you will definitely do; it's just a possibility. There's a predetermined destiny in the shadows. Once something is likely to happen, it will be drawn into happening. With this half divination, combined with a deliberately pushed outcome, Lao Han will be led by the nose in the dark!"
"Let's go block the road on the way out of the city!"
"Which road is the closest to the four rule mountain? Go and block it!"
"I'll just leave this here. There must be someone waiting for Lao Han outside the city, and it might even be a web of nets." Lao Gong's words were too serious.
Xu Jin was communicating with the person in the passenger seat and discussing the route of the drive.
Wu Jinluan was tapping his fingers and calculating something constantly.
The master's calculation method is traditionally done by finger-tapping, which is not an exclusive technique or characteristic of a single person.
"I really can't think of any way he could use to counteract Han Zhu Guan. After all... he is a zombie cultivator who has undergone resurrection, and has eaten the spring water from Tie Sha Mountain. Even if his character has some problems, his strength shouldn't be a problem. It's not possible that they are from Iron Gate Mountain. Even if they catch up, it's not Han Zhu Guan's problem; it should be found with Mao San Ji." Wu Jinluan looked like he was thinking hard.
Lao Gong was the same.
Only, the sky had brightened.
The fact that the sky has brightened means that Lao Gou is disappearing.
For more than two years, I have almost developed the habit of sleeping during the day and staying up at night, in order to cooperate with Lao Gou. But at this crucial moment, no one else is there to cooperate with Lao Gou.
It took about an hour and a half to reach the national highway entrance near the city.
Xu Jin told me that he had calculated the time from Changfeng Temple to here, and that their people would arrive at Changfeng Temple just in time for Han Jun to leave and would also need about ten minutes to get here.
Adding to this, it's safe to assume that they paid a price to make those people quiet. This means that as long as we're on the right path, we've definitely blocked Han Jin's way.
This gave me a slight sense of relief.
The sky is completely bright now. The early morning sun is a bright red, and the glaring light makes it feel good.
There were not many cars on the road, as most people would choose the highway.
That is, Han Jin is prone to motion sickness, which is a point he cannot bypass.
The mobile phone suddenly rang.
The caller was Huang Shu.
This was quite a long time ago, and it also caught me off guard.
There's a feeling of weirdness.
Something out of the ordinary must be amiss! Huang Shu should not be looking for me at this time. It has been a long time since he last contacted me, and he should not be doing so.
It's not that I deliberately distanced myself from Uncle Huang; it's because now, we are indeed not on the same page.
The first call, I didn't answer.
Uncle Huang made a second and a third call, but I still didn't answer.
A call from Yang Guiyang came through.
One, two, three...
This makes me even more suspicious!
Until another phone rang, my eyelids twitched slightly, and my heart jumped fiercely.
Tang Quan's phone!
Uncle Tang has been staying with the Hua family for a long time, and he has been with my parents.
Why would he call me now?
My intuition tells me that this may be something important.
Taking a deep breath, I grunted and accepted the call.
"Manifesting divinity? Are you alright?" Tang Quan's voice was slightly anxious.
"I'm fine, Tang Shu. Is there something wrong with you?" I asked calmly.
"I'm fine, Tang Shu. Is there something wrong with you?" I asked calmly.
"Whew... It's even better that you're fine. Since it's bright now, if you're not busy, why don't you go to the City God Temple? You could discuss and come up with a plan to deal with the potential threat?"
"Although your current strength is high and you don't fear some minor figures, it's still not good to have people watching. It's just a problem that needs to be dealt with."
"I understand, Tang Shu. You don't have to worry. I'll take care of it." My tone remained mild.
After a few more polite words, the phone call ended.
"Luo Dao Zhu, are you alright?" Wu Jinluan looked at me.
"I'm fine." I shook my head.
Lao Gong, you were right!
I also have some small problems on my body.
It's... the secondary jin of the Shiyen cultivated in the City God Temple?
Or is it just a thread to lead to something else?
Or is there someone in the shadows manipulating things, making me leave this path and not interfere with Han Jin?
I... don't want to be enemies with Mao San Ji.
But some things really can't be ignored...
And Lao Gong, he's right again...
A small bus drove onto the distant road. It was familiar, the one we took earlier.
The bright sunlight shone on the car window, making it hard to see the person in front of the car.
As we waited a little closer, we could see that it was indeed Xiang Ke and the small Daoist was sitting next to him in the co-driver's seat.
The car slowly came to a stop by the side of the road, and the window was opened. The little Daoist greeted me first, looking surprised. Xiang Ke also greeted him respectfully as Little Uncle. Both of them felt very strange.
I nodded in response, and then looked at Han Jin beside the back window.
With hands clasped together in a bow, I deeply bowed: "Uncle Han, please change lanes."
"You're truly possessed by ghosts?" Han Jin's tone was cold.
Xiang Ke and the little Daoist dare not speak, stiffening and not daring to move much.
I heaved a long sigh, nodded to Wu Jinlan in acknowledgment, and then directly walked over to get into the car.
Xiang Ke directly opened the car door, not daring to stop me.
"He knows you want to kill him, so he will kill you first to avoid any unpredictable changes!"
With one sentence, I directly revealed the secret!
The reasoning is unconvincing. If I tell Han Jin that there will be ambushes outside, how can he believe it? He might think I'm lying to him!
It will be like what happened in the Wuji Mountain.
At that time, I said so much to the Wuji Mountain because I wanted them to believe me, but in the end, it was not as I had hoped.
There's another reason, which is that I didn't emphasize enough on the point that could truly shock Wuji Mountain.
Expressing Han Jin's inner thoughts in a way that is enough to move him and prompt a change!
These direct words would not be suitable for Xu Jin and the others to hear.
He noticed that Wu Jinluan had also boarded the small bus. He seemed to know what I had just said, looking serious and determined: "It's not only the same in the yin and yang realms, but also in the four rule mountains. No matter what conflicts there are between you, Uncle Han, and Daoist Luo, they are family matters. As one of the family members, we will never harm each other! Think carefully!"
Han Jin's fingers gently tapped the edge of the car window. He squinted slightly, and with no eyelashes, the gap between his eyes seemed empty in the sunlight, looking particularly strange.
He did not show any anger, just seemed thoughtful.
"That ghost really seems to have some insight into human nature."
"Why does Mao San Ji have to kill me?"
"It's just one word, fear."
"If he is cunning and crafty, what does that matter? If he's truly powerful, he won't be afraid. Since he is afraid, why should I care?"
"And I must return to the Four Rules Mountain. I must bring someone with me."
"Xiang Ke, drive the car." Han Jin issued a direct order.
"Choose an appropriate time to send an elder to escort Uncle Han. Why not? Moreover, the elder can also take the body back. Isn't that a perfect solution?" I decisively spoke up.
The car moved.
Xiang Ke dares not defy Han Jin's opinions.
"La Qū, that day, has already been captured by me." Han Jin raised his hand, holding a seal in his palm.
A trace of compassion flashed in his eyes as he said, "This child, his mind is firm. He doesn't want to do what I told him to do, so I need you to persuade him."
"And this child, he has a heart of his own. As his ancestor, I should do something for my child. Your persuasion is one thing, and giving him a little motivation is another."
"The woman named Si Yan is not easy to talk to and does not respect me enough. You can get her to come out of the mountains. If you don't want to go, then I will have to go and bring her out."
"La Qū will hope to see her by his side when he regains new life."
Until the end, Han Jin's face was filled with warmth: "The blood of Bai and the soul of Han, sustained by a real person. I owe it to my brother, to the young ones, and to the Four Rules Mountain."
My face changed, and then changed again. My eyelids spasmed and jumped continuously.
"You, really went crazy."
I gave up. Han Jin would never listen to my advice!
"Xiang Ke, stop the car at once!" I shouted fiercely.
"If you dare stop, I will expel you from the sect, revoke your current status, and charge you with disrespecting me and your seniors! You are a criminal!" Han Jin's tone was extremely stern.
"Luoxianshen, you also sit well. You can't go anywhere. If you're not here, Mao San Ji won't strike first, and he won't leave me behind."
Han Jin stood up!
For a moment, the awe-inspiring power of the corpse real human was fully upon me, making it difficult for people to even breathe!
