At this moment, the local officials outside the black fog were all nervous.
At this time, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. No matter what, they were sure that they would not be able to go home.
However, the current situation was not about whether they could return home or not. It was about whether they still had the life to walk out of this Shing Wong Temple alive.
After such a long time, these high-ranking officials and dignitaries who were originally shocked to the extreme finally regained their senses.
However, the more they regained consciousness, the more terrified they were.
At this moment, many of these dignitaries had gathered at Elder Xiao's side.
Regardless of whether he knew Elder Xiao or not, he had to greet him first. After all, judging from the previous situation, Elder Xiao and Lin Xiao should be old friends.
Even the Zhizhou of Jinling, who was standing next to Elder Xiao, had a flattering expression on his face.
"Elder Xiao, how did you meet this lord? Why didn't you tell me in advance that you know such an immortal? I almost offended this lord before. Old Xiao, I've been under you before! You can't do this."
"This must be Elder Xiao! I'm a local businessman in Jinling. When did you leave the mountain? What are your hobbies? Where do you live now? I can arrange anything you like.”
"This, Old Master Xiao, is there anything you like? I have a winery in Jinling. Oh right…that gentleman doesn't usually have the habit of killing people to silence them, right? We didn't see anything. He's a magnanimous person, so he shouldn't mind what we just said! We people, really, why can't we just keep our mouths shut?”
"Aiya, this girl must be Old Master Du's daughter! I'm really sorry for what happened just now. My foul mouth is like a gossipy woman. Do you have any jewelry that you like? My family is in the jewelry industry. If I have time, I can send a full set of gemstones to your family. How about that?”
……
Xiao Limin and Du Ziling were surrounded by the crowd at the moment, and it was really awkward.
Fortunately, the two of them were from aristocratic families. They were already used to such a scene, so they were quite skilled in dealing with it.
However, his gaze towards Lin Xiao became even more respectful.
Old Lady Yue also had people helping her up, but the old lady was stubborn and refused to get up in front of the two ancestors.
Even the little girl holding the flower basket did not try to persuade him.
Right at this moment, Lin Xiao, General Yue Fei, and General Yue Pengju, who were originally wrapped in the black fog, finally walked out slowly from the black fog. On the other side of Lin Xiao, Xu Ying was following.
When Old Madam Yue saw this scene, she immediately kowtowed again.
A red mark had already appeared on his wrinkled forehead.
Lin Xiao walked forward and pulled Old Madam Yue up.
"There's no need to be so polite. You didn't do anything wrong before.”
Old Madam Yue's face was still a little pale. Just as he was about to say something, he was stopped by Yue Fei's gaze.
"The descendants of the Yue Clan don't need to say so many polite words in front of Master.”
"It hasn't been easy for you all these years, but you've done very well. I've seen it all. You didn't let down your surname…Even my mother might not have done better than you in your position.”
" Your husband and son were personally sent to the underworld by me. Although the underworld is in chaos now, they can still be reincarnated…"
Yue Ningrong finally couldn't take it anymore.
Kneeling on the ground, she whimpered.
Yue Fei raised his hand and patted her head.
Then, his gaze fell on the dignitaries.
All the officials and nobles knelt down on the ground in an orderly manner.
Lin Xiao almost thought that they had specially trained for this.
At this moment, the City God that they had always hoped to pray for was right in front of them, but they did not even dare to raise their heads.
Only Du Ziling knelt at the front and kowtowed in a hoarse voice.
"Please, General Yue, save my two grandfathers.”
"The kind-hearted Du Ziling is willing to offer incense to General Yue day and night.”
Xu Ying, who was behind Lin Xiao, looked at the people kneeling on the ground, and the corners of his mouth could not help but reveal a sneer.
"A group of high-ranking officials and dignitaries. At this point, they are actually inferior to a little girl.”
At this moment, Old Man Xiao and Old Man Du, who were behind the crowd, looked at the young girl kneeling in front of them and could not help but feel touched.
At their age.
He had seen all kinds of storms and waves. The country was broken, the mountains and rivers were broken, the soul of the ancient country was reunited, the poor ate wild vegetables, the rich did not know money…He had enjoyed the blessing of his children and had seen the waves of the new era. It did not matter if he died.
However, he was still touched to see the younger generation like this.
Du Ziling's intentions were not selfish.
It was purely because these two elders loved her sincerely, and she repaid them with the same sincerity.
Yue Fei glanced at Lin Xiao. After Lin Xiao nodded, Yue Fei shot out two black mist.
The black fog entered the bodies of the two old men.
The two old men's bodies instantly trembled, and a dark light flashed in their eyes. Then, their originally hunched backs actually straightened up quite a bit.
Yue Fei's faint voice sounded.
"These two juniors were bound by karma when they were alive. They didn't wear much Yin clothing and fly. They were just City Gods and didn't have the heaven-defying ability to reverse Yin and Yang. The two ghostly qi given to you can only reduce the pain of your physical strain.”
"The Shing Wong guarding the providence of a place can at most affect some blessings. Fei can't do anything else. You don't have to bow anymore."
"Instead of praying to God and Buddha wholeheartedly, it's better to let yourself have a clear conscience.”
"Also, after today…Yue Fei will no longer be the City God of Jinling City.”
Yue Fei's voice was cold.
However, these words shocked the dignitaries to the core.
City God…
It was a position that every malicious ghost wanted to be.
Becoming a City God was equivalent to getting rid of the identity of a ghost.
His status was high and respected by the world.
Ghosts who had some status and had not reincarnated had the greatest dream of becoming a city god. However, after becoming a City God, he could not leave the City God's protected land. Yue Fei was destined to follow Lin Xiao and travel the world.
Yue Fei was one of the Ghost Generals who were most worthy of being the City God. He took up this burden and then put it down lightly.
He didn't care!
But he didn't care, but someone else did.
The middle-aged Zhizhou of Jinling City, who was kneeling on the ground, became anxious.
He almost jumped up from the ground and then rushed to Yue Fei's side. However, as soon as he got close, he was shocked by the terrifying ghost qi and knelt down again.
Although he was kneeling, his tears and snot were all flowing down at this moment.
"No! No way! General Yue, Jinling can't live without you!”
"Jinling has been around for so many years. If you weren't there, what would happen to Jinling? In the eyes of the people of Jinling, they can do without me, the Zhizhou, or even the magistrate, but they can't do without you!”
"In this world, if Jinling doesn't have the City God, it won't last a night. Please don't go…I beg you.”
The Jinling Zhizhou in front of him was crying his heart out.
This heart-wrenching feeling was not fake. He was really sad.
The general in front of him had protected Jinling for many years.
Yue Fei half-closed his eyes and patted the Zhizhou's head, which was rare.
"There's no need to be so afraid!"
"After I leave, I'll let Han Shizhong take over…There's already a general statue of him in the City God Temple. With his achievements and status, he's worthy of being the City God of Jinling. It was just that the smoke was less, but it wouldn't last long.”
Only then did the Zhizhou's cries lessen a little.
He suddenly realized that the Great General in front of him…
He shouldn't have been a general who was trapped in a city.
Yue Fei was a hero in life and a hero in death. Laughing, he went to Fengdu to recruit his old subordinates, and a million elite cavalry killed King Yama.
He was Great General Yue. Even after his death, he should still be a general who conquered the world.
Yue Fei turned his head and looked at the officials kneeling on the ground. He turned his head and looked at Lin Xiao.
His eyes were questioning.
The meaning of the question was very obvious…these high-ranking officials and dignitaries wanted to be silenced.
Yue Fei was definitely not a murderous person.
Back then, the Yue Family's army even " froze to death but didn't tear down their houses, starved to death but didn't pillage "!
But now, he was a ghost general.
With just a word from Lin Xiao, he didn't mind letting dozens of white bones fall under the Shing Wong Temple.
Those dignitaries were also very nervous at this moment.
A fat man rolled his eyes cleverly. Then, he seemed to have realized something and spoke loudly.
"We won't tell anyone about what happened today. After I leave, I'll immediately donate 100 million yuan to the mountain area to build a primary school for the children in the mountain area and donate yellow talismans. We are all the pillars of Jinling! It's a pity to die here, senior!”
Lin Xiao looked at the fat man who spoke loudly in the crowd and smiled indifferently.
"Even if you want to help hide what happened today, you can't hide it from the Ghost Hunting Division.”
"I'll let you off on account of your sincere respect for Yue Fei. Xu Ying, blur their memories, but it's not to the extent of taking their lives.!! You should know that malicious ghosts are best at seeking revenge.”
Dozens of dignitaries nodded their heads vigorously.
Lin Xiao put on his mask again. The pitch-black fog covered him, Yue Fei, and Xu Ying's bodies. The three of them completely disappeared in the thick ghost fog.
Only Du Ziling's eyes widened, as if she wanted to imprint Lin Xiao's back into her mind.
……
When the Constellation Officer finally entered the Shing Wong Temple, it was 2:15 AM.
This was one of the times of the day when the ghost qi was the heaviest.
However, at this moment, the pitch-black fog that was originally enveloping the City God Temple had already disappeared. What was revealed was a dark green night sky with a bright moon and sparse stars.
The huge Shing Wong Temple was silent.
The Constellation Officials who had been transferred over overnight, the local Constellation Officials of Jinling, and the guards made up a total of eight people. They stood on the back street of the Shing Wong Temple with solemn expressions.
This back street was a little empty at the moment.
There was only a dilapidated Shing Wong Temple and dozens of officials and nobles lying on the ground unconscious.
The eight Constellation Officials and the guards looked at each other with ugly expressions.
a Constellation Official said in a low voice.
"I've checked them. They're all alive, but they've been attacked by ghost energy. A portion of their memories should have been blurred, but their lives are fine.”
Behind the Constellation Official was a Constellation Official with purple stripes on his black robe. He seemed to be one rank higher than the other Constellations.
He didn't pay attention to the fainted dignitaries.
His body trembled as he looked at the collapsed Shing Wong Temple in front of him. Then, he spoke word by word.
"Are those mortals the main point?”
"Didn't anyone investigate where such a big city god of Jin Ling City went? There was no longer a city god guarding the Shing Wong Temple. General Yue was no longer here!”
"Report this to the Chang 'an Ghost Hunting Division immediately!! Just say that the City God of Jinling City is missing. I wonder if there will be a ghost outbreak tonight…"
