The Spirit World

Chapter 427 A tough night
Longxing Society.

It is the largest chamber of commerce in Wenti County.

It can be said that with its strong financial resources, it has almost monopolized all the sales locations in Wenti County, from street vendors to the supply of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and all those under its minions have a certain influence.

The origin of Longxing Society comes from the ancient poverty alleviation and relief association. Some spontaneous businessmen organized themselves to survive a rare natural disaster in Wenti County at that time. At that time, there were starving people everywhere. Longxing Society even helped the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make a living and opened up granaries. It can be said that the existence of Longxing Society almost allowed half of Wenti County's economy to develop stably. In addition, the advanced thinking of the early leaders of Longxing Society controlled the [Mingjing] mine, which was useless at the time, and the [Dragon Pattern Ice Crystal Stone] vein unique to Wenti County was in their own hands. The growth of Longxing Society is self-evident. If the early Longxing Society is likened to the foundation of a towering tree, this towering tree has already branched out. With the current development of Mingjing and the stable mining funds of Dragon Pattern Ice Crystal Stone, it has entered the gold and silver casting industry, and formed the first human gold and silver business similar to the [Goblin Warehouse] to carry out capital turnover in the form of collecting and lending. Then it has entered the real estate industry. Wenti County’s large and small buildings, not to mention the high price of gold, almost all have the shadow of Longxinghui. The duchy’s enfeoffment of titles and so on have strictly controlled the collection and control of Wenti County’s real estate. But even so, the local snake Longxinghui can also get commissions from the production of houses. Senior construction mages are also proud to join the construction organization controlled by Longxinghui. After all, Longxinghui has existed for a long time, which is enough to be a stable job. From the construction industry to further deepen, the location of street stalls and shops is sold, the wine industry, the theater performance industry, and even the restaurant catering industry, all have the shadow of Longxinghui...

In Wenti County, there are of course other chambers of commerce competing, but after all, they are just following the lead of Longxinghui, and their historical roots are not as long as others. It is also Longxinghui that takes the lead, and other chambers of commerce follow suit.

Secondly, the qualification for talent selection for the Dragon Assembly is controlled by the Longxing Society. Although it is essentially selected by the Flandre Royal Academy, the number of recommendations, popularity, and even the qualification to participate in the competition all have a certain impact on the contestants. It is like a guarantee of personality. If something happens to a child recommended by the Longxing Society, the accountability can be traced back to the Longxing Society, and the Flandre Royal Academy can rest assured and will not worry too much about any treason or even spies from enemy countries. It is worth mentioning that if a child who participates in the Dragon Assembly commits illegal acts later, they can also be held accountable through the Dragon Assembly and compensated for financial losses.

For the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it initially encouraged the Longxing Society, but then had to suppress its growth momentum by imposing high taxes and a compulsory registration system for its leaders. Now, their compulsory leader is Locke.

Under the management of Lord Longxu, Wenti County implemented for the first time the regulation of discouraging the use of magic in the main city of Wenti County. As a result, more and more people who love peace and just want to live a good life or do business came to Wenti County. Naturally, the traditional industries of Longxing Society will be impacted, and more and more competitors will appear. The leading position of Longxing Society has become more difficult to face competitors because of its own traditional control of mining industry and the ancient management and restraint system of layers of institutions inherited by Longxing Society. However, if you say that he is not doing something in secret, you will not believe it even if you say so. But Locke, the person in charge of enforcement, acts like an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years. He can always carry out covert operations through the hands of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and performs actions with a decent reputation and behaviors with a legitimate name.

Longxugong almost avoided it, so it was reasonable for him to have a headache.

However, Chang Yufeng knew about Locke from Lin'er's memory...

That is a very bad memory...

Thinking about it now, I was so sad that I even had to hold my breath and my heart ached.

That is, Locke and his brothers personally carried out the attack on Lin'er...

That was... which reincarnation... I can't remember clearly... But as of now, what Locke knows is enough to prove that he has a close connection with me and the person who controls everything behind the scenes...

It can also be speculated that Locke's orders did not come directly from the person behind the scenes. It is more likely that there are more middlemen to prevent the person behind the scenes from being exposed...

Chang Yufeng tossed and turned...

Looking at the room with the lights off, even in the not-so-dark room, there is still a slight pink color that catches the eye.

Erica had fallen asleep. She slept very well and didn't kick the quilt. She just lay with her arms wide open, looking very lazy.

Although he is a sheep, he is not a sheep after all. He sleeps with his back against the cushion instead of the ceiling. As long as he opens his eyes, the ugly and cute bear is staring at him fiercely. If he does not have a strong psychological quality, he will be scared to wet his pants if he has to pee in the middle of the night.

Oh, sheep don’t have pants…

how to say……

The more I think about it, the less I know what to do. The more I think about it... the harder it is to fall asleep.

How did things turn out like this?

It seemed to happen all of a sudden.

Let's start from now. After the Dragon Conference, he wanted to leave because he suddenly realized that he was implicating innocent people all the time, so he needed to leave...

No, going back further, he killed Locke in the church... Did the problem arise at that time?

Why did I want to kill Loken at that time?
It must not just be because of the fake news that Locke had died. After all, Locke did not do anything bad at the time... nor did he do anything harmful to himself... He heard that after Locke died, Longxing Society was closed down... Most of the industries of Longxing Society, which had been carefully managed for hundreds of years, were auctioned off and transferred to other chambers of commerce in order to avoid unemployment for most people. Apart from the confiscation of the mining industry, nothing else seemed to have happened...

Well, this seems normal, maybe Longxugong has more information that he hasn't released yet... Then one of the days in this piece of information with unknown amount of secret information may include me... or even be closely related to me...

This is not self-indulgent...

Chang Yufeng couldn't help but think so...

Perhaps more often than not this speculation will be true, or even accurate.

So, let’s think about why Locke knew Lin’er and launched such a precise attack?
How did he know that Lin'er would come to find him... No, how did he know that there was a person like Lin'er who might affect the purpose of his reincarnation...

If his purpose was to save Lin'er and help her escape this miserable cycle of reincarnation, then why did Locke know that Lin'er was the key to the multi-party game?
Or maybe the order he received was just to kill Lin'er and it was not a pure order with any reason.

Lin'er was indeed seriously injured. If Loken had tried hard to hide it, Lin'er would at most think that it was an unexpected disaster caused by the Shadow Hunter... and she would definitely not associate it with the name Loken.

I know that Locke hurt Lin'er because I have been through a few time jumps, and even the cycle of life and death with my memories...

One afternoon, when he was cleaning up after helping Wang Die repair parts, he noticed Lin'er's presence near the farm. When he went to look for her, he saw...

A scene I don't want to see...

That was not a scene that I wanted to recall. Those scattered hair and limbs... made me collapse beyond words...

That...horrible face twitched and took its last breath...

He looked at Loken in the distance... came to the Three Thousand Palaces, and came in front of Xun Huangying... without saying a word... he did not shed tears... he did not even do anything... Xun Huangying looked at him helplessly, without saying anything.

This doesn't require words...

Loken's revenge...

I still reported it with my own ability...

but……

There is always some indescribable feeling...

It's like chest tightness. Whenever I think about it, I feel a tightness in my chest, and I can't breathe...

Locke was able to kill all the small animals in the forest today in the name of demonic infection - this was most likely because he was a sheep - then tomorrow Locke would definitely be able to kill all the so-called "infected people" in Wenti County in the name of demonic infection.

Chang Yufeng turned over and slept on his side, pressing his heart... This would make him feel better...

When I think about my reincarnation... and those damned ones will also live once... I feel so angry...

Now, although I am no longer in a state where I can’t do anything… but sometimes, I still have the will but not the strength…

A kind word can warm you through three winter months, but an evil word can chill you through six months...

The same is true for people...

If a person is kind, even if good fortune has not yet arrived, misfortune will be far away... This misfortune is not caused by others, but more often by oneself. Those who do not stir up trouble and have a kind heart will have long been away from their own misfortune. How to prevent the misfortune of others is a matter of tracing the root cause and is difficult to find...

Other people's misfortunes are unprovoked disasters...

Lin'er had never had her own misfortune... that was the misfortune that came to Sanqian from the woman named Yu Su...

If you really want to count it... Lin'er shouldn't have to bear it... Yu Su's words were also what she meant... She made herself care more about Lin'er, the girl named Chen Lin, who traveled through time with her, instead of hurting herself and her heart for the imaginary grudges and hatreds...

The person she wanted to save was Lin'er... not Yu Su as Xun Huangying thought... In the distant past... Lin'er, who already had Yu Su's memories, jumped into Chu Chu's Tower of Babel without hesitation...

What are you thinking about?

Could it be that Yu Su's feelings affected her...

She also wants to... break free from this unwarranted bondage?
Chang Yufeng turned over again...

He could only let time pass by. He should be sleeping at this time... Perhaps because he didn't need to maintain sufficient physical strength to face the possible danger, he didn't think about going to bed early to keep his energy...

With all sorts of random thoughts in his mind, he could have forced himself to empty his mind through the sleep-aiding methods he had learned, and not think about anything...

But he didn't...

He just wanted to think, his mind just kept thinking... kept thinking... starting from Talon, starting from his own life experience, starting from his various experiences...

I just kept thinking about it... For example, something that I almost forgot came to my mind...

That is Dada and Chi Guang... No matter what kind of reincarnation... they seem to have evaporated from the face of the earth...

I don't know where they went... Logically speaking, this shouldn't happen... One of them is a [Level 3 Transcendent], and the other is a [Red Fire Eagle] from the heavens. Plus, my father, who I only met once, asked me to do this. These two people shouldn't disappear without a trace...

During the time of Wang Dao Seven… it is impossible to recall whether the news was true or not, but if there is a possibility that it is true… it is difficult to guess what happened…

Who will be fighting against Dada and Chi Guang in the sky?
I was too young and fragile to leave Dada's protective barrier, not to mention the biting cold in the sky...

Everything seemed vague and self-evident, and I didn’t have as clear an understanding as I do now.

How to move forward? When we lost Xunhuangying to point out the direction, this question became particularly prominent...

Chang Yufeng turned around again and came to the front of the ugly and cute bear. He heard the chirping of insects unique to Wenti County, a sound that no human could make.

Niman Farm was actually quite quiet... The chirping of insects did not sound pleasant to Chang Yufeng at this moment, but rather frighteningly noisy. It could not be said that the chirping of insects annoyed him and he could not sleep, but it was more about his judgment of the road ahead...

What should I do next?
I definitely only have... one life left...

As a result, I am no longer called "Chang Yufeng", nor am I a real person, nor a summoned creature, and even less an animal...

Now when I think about the future, it becomes very strange because I can't think of what to do...

It can’t be said that it was a spur of the moment… but it’s inevitable that there is some empty loss…

It’s not that I really don’t know the so-called "remaining constant in the face of ever-changing circumstances"... or "taking one step at a time and seeing what happens", but it’s because I’m really not responsible for a certain behavior now.

Now I don’t know his name… Although 8 doesn’t know that he is Chang Yufeng, the person with the surname Chang and the given name Yufeng lives next door…

He couldn't help but think clearly about what he should do...

clue……

If it was Lan Luo who sent me here... then is there any clue? She is quite thoughtful... she shouldn't have thought of not giving me any clues...

If this is true, then where are the clues?
Chang Yufeng looked at the ceiling...

This pitch black with the sheep's glaucoma makes it almost impossible to see anything clearly, or maybe it's because it's a color itself, so it's impossible to tell whether the eyes are open in the dark, so... funny...

I am so bored, so bored that I can’t do anything… and I am bored because I can’t do anything…

He touched his forehead, and the two small horns were still a little prickly... If he really wanted to say that he was a sheep... then he could say that... but...

and many more……

He kept touching, and the more he touched, the more strange it felt... It was as if something was stuck in his corner and he couldn't get it out...

To be honest, this was the first time he touched his little horn like this.

[Mr. Ning...save me...]

"Who?" Chang Yufeng was shocked!

Sitting up suddenly!

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Erica was so scared that she almost rolled off the bed. Her hair stood straight and tilted to one side. She looked at Chang Yufeng sitting in the bear's arms in horror... like a sculpture of a sheep.

"Ning... No... It's okay... I was hallucinating..." Chang Yufeng didn't know how to answer... He looked around... There was no one around... He didn't feel anything else...

But suddenly I heard someone shouting in my ear...

Resentful and confused...

Like crying, but mute...

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here..." Erica shook her head like a pony, and fell asleep on the bed again. She pulled up the quilt and said: "Don't be afraid, they can't find here... My father is very powerful..."

She fell silent after that...

Then he started snoring loudly...

She fell asleep very quickly. Looking at the stains on her clothes, it looked like she had a hard day...

Chang Yufeng frowned...

Now I really don't need to sleep...

When the sun rose, he still had his eyes open... This time he didn't think about anything else, he just kept thinking about that voice that sounded like a cry for help... Where on earth did it come from...

It appeared several times again...

But when the sun really shone into the room... he felt sleepy again...

He scratched his head, the wool tangled up in his hands.

Perhaps, only by being so sleepy can he fall asleep...
