Chapter 2076: Mysterious ancestor

Chapter 2076 Mysterious Patriarch

First was the conversation with the men in black after entering the city, then the sights they saw along the way, and finally the information they learned from the conversation with the lame old man.

As the information gathered together, the whole thing became clearer in Lin Yue's mind.

After a while, Lin Yue whispered, "Fellow Daoist Qing, let's hold on and see what they will do next?"

Hearing Lin Yue's words, Qing Bingying's pupils shrank slightly.

"Could it be... Fellow Daoist Lin, do you think they are planning something bad against us?"

"Judging from the currently known information, this should not happen because everyone's goals are the same, but nothing is absolute, and the information we know may not be all true, so we temporarily Still have to be vigilant.”

"I understand."

Qing Bingying nodded solemnly.

Next, the two of them found a place in the house to sit down and meditate, and at the same time spread their spiritual thoughts outside the room, and they could find out in time if something went wrong.

...

A secret room in the hall.

A dozen mysterious people in black robes stood in the shadow of the oil lamps. They were of different stature. Some were tall and burly like a beast, while others were as short as a dwarf.

At this moment, a figure pushed open the door of the secret room and limped in.

When he walked under the light of the oil lamp, what appeared was the lame old man's face, but now his face did not reveal a trace of solemnity, it was a humble gesture.

Noticing his appearance, the figures in black robes cast their gazes, but no one said something first.

"Cough cough... Dear ancestors, the legendary man has appeared, and we can leave this sinful place soon!"

After the lame old man stopped, he said in an uncontrollably excited tone.

Soon, the voice of reply came from the shadows.

"Have you identified that person?"

A thin figure asked indifferently.

"Yes, for sure!"

The lame old man nodded excitedly.

Hearing his answer, this time there was finally a little commotion in the black-robed figures.

"What is recorded in the scroll of inheritance is actually true. I thought it was just some nonsense left by the ancients."

"Seven Guardians! Don't say anything to offend your predecessors, this is taboo!"

"Don't be arguing, let's think about how to get that person to help us get out of here."

"Yes, this is the most important thing. The mining efficiency of Chiyang Mine has been getting lower and lower over the years, and it is almost unable to support our dormancy!"

The lame old man stood by and waited quietly for their conclusion. Although he was also a high-ranking member of the entire clan in terms of status, he was no different from other ordinary clansmen in front of these unfathomable ancestors.

With the constant conversation of more than a dozen ancestors, the final plan was also decided.

"Then it is arranged like this. First, let him observe the scroll of inheritance. If he can find a way to leave this world, there is no need to embarrass him."

The dwarf-like short figure said grimly.

"Can."

Hearing everyone's decision, the lame old man couldn't help but interrupt.

"Old Ancestors..."

Feeling the indifferent eyes, the lame old man couldn't help trembling all over. He knew that although these ancestors also belonged to the clan, each one's hands were stained with the blood of many people of the same clan.

"What's up?"

The dwarf figure asked coldly.

The lame old man hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Although the plans of the ancestors are very good, the day is coming soon..."

"The diary..."

Hearing this answer, these black-robed figures fell into silence for a while, and after a while, someone slowly spoke.

"If this is the case, the variables will increase a lot. Get out of his mouth the way to leave this world as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to carry out that plan when people in other gathering places discover him!"

"Understood, I'll do it right away."

The lame old man responded quickly, and when he looked up again, he found that the dozens of figures in front of him had disappeared, and the feeling of the rest of his life poured out of his heart.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly turned around and left the secret room. Every time he talked to these clan ancestors, he felt a shudder.

It was not until he walked out of the secret passage that the lame old man slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the oncoming woman in gauze, his expression returned to solemnity again, and he asked solemnly.

"How's the dinner going?"

The woman in gauze stopped when she heard the words, bowed slightly and replied respectfully.

"Reporting to the boss, everything has been prepared according to your requirements. I am going to lead the VIP to the banquet venue."

"Very well, make sure to get all the secrets out of his mouth, no matter the cost!"

The lame old man ordered in a deep voice.

From the great importance attached to this matter by the ancestors of the clan, he could already see that if the plan this time fails, he is likely to follow in the footsteps of the previous clan elders.

Although few of the previous family elders were able to die well, he still did not want to end up in such a tragic end.

Seeing the lame old man's slightly meaningful gaze, the woman in the gauze realized something, and the beautiful face under the hood was slightly rosy, nodded and replied in a low voice.

"My subordinate understands."

As a maid who was raised in the clan hall, she had a hunch about her own destiny. After all, the living environment here is many times better than other clansmen, and these gifts are naturally not without cost.

What they need to pay is to dedicate all of themselves when the clan receives some distinguished guests, so as to obtain the greatest benefits for the clan. Therefore, every maid in the clan hall is a beautiful woman carefully selected from the city. , which can only appear here after unified training.

"Um."

Seeing that she understood what she meant, the lame old man nodded in satisfaction and turned to leave, still thinking about things related to Lin Yue.

Although he hadn't handed the scroll of inheritance to Lin Yue for observation, he felt that Lin Yue didn't know anything about how to leave this world. After all, he also came here from the outside world.

So the maid just arranged is the first wave of temptation for the lame old man. If it goes well, the clan can get a way to leave this world in advance, and naturally there is no need to face the troubles of the sun.

On the other side, the woman in gauze came to Qing Bingying's room and knocked on the door softly.

dong dong dong...

"What's up?"

Qing Bingying's cool voice came from the room.

"VIP, the banquet is about to be held. I'm here to take you to the venue."

"it is good."

After getting the answer, the woman in gauze was about to come to the next room to knock on the door, but found that Lin Yue and Qing Bingying walked out of the room just now.
