Chapter 153 Ghost Hunting ([-])

The weather is getting colder and colder, and winter is finally coming.

This year's winter is particularly cold. Often after a snowfall, the whole world is covered in white.

Fortunately, the weather has finally cleared these two days, and the warm sun has finally dispelled the chill in the world.

Jiang Yuan lay comfortably on a rattan chair in the practice room, watching the tree demon Lin Yulin play with her puppy.

During this period of time, the Pengcheng sub-rudder has become the second main helm of the Star Demon Sea, and the surrounding sub-rudders have been conquered one by one, and only some places far away from Pengcheng are still fighting against Pengcheng.

After two months of conquest, at this time, Jiang Yuan can finally take a good rest.

After all, the Pengcheng sub-helm has a weak foundation, and it was able to attack the surrounding forces only by Jiang Yuan's absolute force.Now that it has expanded to this point, it is already the limit of Pengcheng's sub-helm.

At this moment, it is time to stop attacking and stabilizing the interior.

In this upheaval in the Star Demon Sea, there were countless casualties, but this was what Jiang Yuan and Fei Qianqian had to do.

Only by completely controlling the surrounding forces can they obtain all the information and resources they want.

More and more gang members started to find out if the remnants of Youyi Sect had fled into Pengcheng's sphere of influence; one after another, maps marked with ghosts and ghosts were also sent to Jiang Yuan's hands.

Jiang Yuan and Fei Qianqian alone are not enough for this kind of work, and a lot of manpower is needed to complete it.

The map of the distribution of ghosts was spread out on the ground in the practice room, and Jiang Yuan inspected these places.

Now that Pengcheng's power expansion has stopped, he should also go out and hunt demons to increase his strength.

There are very few ghosts around Pengcheng, and more places where ghosts haunt are often located in remote places.

In those remote places, firstly, there are no masters to sit in the town, and secondly, when something happens, it is not easy for outsiders to know, so such places are most likely to become gathering places for demons and ghosts.

It was these places that Jiang Yuan was eyeing.

He needs to identify which places are dangerous, which places can get high returns, and which places the rumors of ghosts are false from the intelligence gathered from all over the place.

Just when Jiang Yuan was discerning carefully and was having a hard time making a choice, the voices of two little girls came from near the practice room, coming from Li Siyan and Chen Yin.

Jiang Yuan's ears were extremely sensitive, and he soon heard Li Siyan's words:

"Chen Yin, do you think foster father will have dinner with us today? He seldom goes home, and even when he does, he hides in the practice room all day. It's really hard to see him."

Chen Yin asked:
"Second Sister, what do you want to do? Is it the matter you want to tell your foster father, Mr. Tizhuo? Your foster father is in the practice room, so you can't go in and disturb him. Besides, it's snowing every year, what's there to see? ?”

Lee Si Yeon retorted:
"You are such a country bumpkin! We are no longer country girls, but Miss Jiang's! We have to do what a lady should do. This is not called 'watching the snow', it is called 'appreciating the snow'! In the quiet night of the villa , the bright moon hangs high, drinking hot tea and watching the mountains and forests in the snow, this is called 'Fengya'! Oh! Do you want to go or not?"

Chen Yin continued:

"But. Jade Bow Villa is so far away from Pengcheng, my adoptive father will definitely not agree."

Li Siyan also said distressedly:

"Yeah, foster father is so busy, he probably won't accompany us. The young masters and ladies of other families have their parents to accompany them to play. I really envy them."

Chen Yin's voice also weakened:

"Me too"

Jiang Yuan's heart moved when he heard this, and he looked for the Yugong Villa they mentioned on the map, and soon he found the target.

Jade Bow Villa is located near a small town called Kangcheng, a hundred miles south of Peng County. Jade Bow Villa is also owned by a martial arts family. This family has always been closely related to Xingmohai, and it is not too far from Peng County.

So amidst the drastic changes in the Star Demon Sea, Jade Bow Villa quickly expressed its willingness to obey Pengcheng's sub-helm.

Most importantly, there have been rumors of demons haunting Cannes.

Jiang Yuan thought for a while, got up and walked out of the practice room.

After passing through the empty courtyard around the practice room, and through a moon cave door, they saw two children, Li Siyan and Chen Yin, who had been talking distressedly behind the door.

Chen Yin is relatively simple, with almost no makeup on her face, let alone jewelry.Her petite body was wearing a dull-toned padded jacket. Although the material of the padded jacket was good, the style did not show youthful vigor, but rather looked a bit old-fashioned.

Li Siyan, on the other hand, will obviously dress up a lot. She is wearing a white mink fur, which accentuates her slender body.The bun on the head is very delicate, and there is a jasper hairpin inserted on it.The already beautiful face was carefully made up, making it even more glamorous beyond this age.

Seeing Jiang Yuan, the two were overjoyed and shouted in unison:

"Father!"

Jiang Yuan came to them, touched their heads and said with a smile:
"I heard everything you said just now. What did your teacher, Mr. Zhuo, say?"

The previous teacher who taught the four children Xiwen died in the plague. This Mr. Zhuo is the new teacher, named Zhuo Yiming. His teaching method is to gather all the students together to teach.

When Chen Yin heard Jiang Yuan's words, she lowered her head nervously and dared not make a sound, as if a little secret had been revealed.

And Li Siyan took Jiang Yuan's hand and said:

"Father, we have a senior brother who is the son of Jade Bow Villa. He invited all Mr. Zhuo and all his students to visit his house. Mr. Zhuo also agreed, but said that only disciples accompanied by their parents can go. Father .I heard that Jade Bow Villa has beautiful scenery in snowy weather! Many brothers and sisters are accompanied by their parents, and we want to go too.”

After finishing speaking, Li Siyan opened her big eyes full of pleading, and looked at Jiang Yuan with a pitiful look.

Chen Yin seemed to have the same idea as Li Siyan, but she didn't dare to imitate Li Siyan's attitude.

Jiang Yuan smiled and said:

"Okay, I happen to be free during this time, so I will accompany you as guests. By the way, are Qian Luo and Ding Ze going?"

Chen Yin and Li Siyan cried out in surprise when they heard the words.

Li Siyan followed up and said:

"Father, the eldest sister and the fourth brother are busy practicing martial arts all day long. I have already asked them, and they are not willing to go. Also, the other senior brothers and sisters have already set off for the Jade Bow Villa today, so we have to hurry up too. Ah! Otherwise, it would be impolite and embarrassing to visit after them.”

Jiang Yuan patted Li Siyan on the head and said:
"You all pack up and prepare, I also need to make arrangements here. How about this, we will be on the road early tomorrow morning, and we won't arrive later than your senior brothers and sisters."

As soon as the two little girls heard this, they left in a hurry with joy, and went to pack their bags excitedly.

Jiang Yuan came to the living room and ordered his servants to summon Cen Lei.

Cen Lei and Qi Yuxing were both the deputy altar masters of the Red Tiger Altar. After Jiang Yuan took over the power of Pengcheng, Cen Lei's position has been changed to a regular position.

This subordinate is prudent in his work, and he knows how to advance and retreat.Although the strength in the early stage of the four extremes is slightly weaker, it is also a talent.

This also gave Jiang Yuan the intention to promote him. Jiang Yuan also released some of the martial arts cheats that he was not qualified to read in the original sub-helm.

Cen Lei was very grateful for this, and began to work for Jiang Yuan wholeheartedly.

After a while, Cen Lei came to the living room very quickly:
"This subordinate pays respects to Master Jiang Tuo!"

Jiang Yuan nodded, indicating that he doesn't need to be too polite:
"I'm going to Jade Bow Villa, and I'll leave early tomorrow morning. You can arrange the details, and you don't have to waste a lot of time."

Now Pengcheng's sphere of influence is not very stable, and people at the level of elders still need to stay in charge and not move lightly.

Cen Lei nodded and replied:

"Jade Bow Villa is located in Cangcheng, and there is also our sub-altar in Cangcheng. The subordinates immediately sent out pigeons to notify the incense master of the sub-altar in Cannes, and asked him to receive them well. And here, the subordinates will lead the red tiger Brother Tan and Master Jiang Duo will accompany you as guards."

Jiang Yuan waved his hand, and Cen Lei left immediately.

Jiang Yuan was the only one left in the living room. He tapped his fingers on the table and was thinking about the information about the Cangcheng ghosts in his heart:

"The ogre ghost that descended from the sky. The fierce ghost in the ancient temple deep in the mountains. I hope this trip will not disappoint me."

The ghost information in Cannes has been marked on the map, there are two cases.

In the first case, it is rumored that ghosts with long wings descend from the sky in the middle of the night and prey on the living in the city.

However, this ghost seldom haunts. Although it causes serious panic each time, there are not many living people preyed on by it, and it has not appeared again since last year, so it has not attracted excessive attention from the night guards in Cannes, and even The night guards in Kangcheng believed that the ghost had already migrated.

There are even rumors that the huge flame demon that appeared once in Pengcheng was actually transformed after this winged demon migrated to Pengcheng.

Regarding this legend, Jiang Yuan could only laugh it off.

In the second case, there used to be an ancient temple in the deep mountains near Kangcheng. No one knows when it was built, and it was always peaceful.But since seven years ago, all the woodcutters and hunters who stayed overnight in the ancient temple have mysteriously disappeared.

There are rumors that someone once saw a ghost wandering in the ancient temple from a distance, but it is impossible to tell whether it is true or not.

Since the ancient temple is located in the deep mountains and inaccessible, the panic and damage caused are very limited, so the night patrol of Kangcheng listed it as a dangerous place. After erecting a monument to warn, nothing can be done.

Regarding these two pieces of information, Jiang Yuan paid more attention to the latter one.

The winged ghost has not appeared for a year, and no one knows if it is still in Cannes.

But the latter ancient temple will not run away with long legs. As long as Jiang Yuan goes there, he will surely gain something.

The ghost gate world is too weird, entering it to hunt ghosts, Jiang Yuan is not sure whether he will encounter danger or get nothing.

He also asked Princess You Yue, and according to her, that place was already very dangerous for Jiang Yuan.One of King Yi's subordinates is good at divination, he must be able to figure out who killed Du Yu.

If Jiang Yuan enters again rashly, he will definitely be intercepted by King Yi's forces.

Jiang Yuan did not fully believe this statement.After all, Princess Youyue also has a lot of small thoughts for the tree demon Lin Yulin.

If it weren't for the eventuality that Princess Youyue needed to enter the world of ghost gates in the future, and Princess Youyue could open the gate of ghosts, Jiang Yuan would have accepted Princess Youyue's ghost aura long ago.

However, for dangerous things, it is better to believe what is there than to believe what is not, so Jiang Yuan also temporarily gave up entering the world of ghosts.

Except for the world of ghosts, there are too many ghosts in too many places in this world, there is no need to take risks in unknown places.

So this trip to Yugong Villa, Jiang Yuan also had this in mind.
