Chapter 70: Sacrifice

Chapter 70 Sacrifice Zhong Kui and Jiang Lin acted separately. The former temporarily returns to the underworld to assist Pan Cui in the secret investigation. Jiang Lin was preparing to go to the West Lake Dragon Palace. As for Bai Suzhen, she will stay in Hangzhou Prefecture and secretly keep an eye on Prince Song's Mansion to prevent the other party from becoming desperate. The next morning. Jiang Lin stood by the West Lake with clear eyes. In fact, up to now, it is basically certain that the old Dragon King cannot be on the side of Prince Song's Palace. The reason has been mentioned before, it is the "golden water" from Wang Lingguan. So, why did the name of the old Dragon King appear in the mouth of Wang Daoren? Jiang Lin is more inclined to believe that the Old Dragon King is the "target" of the Song Palace's layout, rather than a participant. In other words, the role of the old Dragon King should be a more advanced "ghost fetus".

"Whether we can see the foundation of King Song's plan may depend on the old Dragon King." Jiang Lin muttered to himself. After saying that, he took advantage of the fact that there was no one around and stepped onto the West Lake. He strolled slowly on the lake, while exuding his own aura. "Crash..." Soon, the West Lake under Jiang Lin's feet began to ripple, and the waves rolled. Starting from under Jiang Lin's feet, a series of stairs deep into the water emerged. The West Lake is not actually very deep, but as the saying goes: It’s not the depth of the water that matters, but the presence of a dragon. Generally speaking, the gods on earth have their own little world as gods. Even the Dragon King of the Well is like this, not to mention the huge West Lake. Steps formed by the lake water extend downwards, and the deepest part is dark, which looks a bit creepy. Jiang Lin just took a look and walked away. The waves are lined up on both sides in an orderly manner, and steps extend under your feet. After walking about ten feet down, Jiang Lin felt like he had entered another world. The darkness at the end disappeared, replaced by a magnificent crystal palace. Jiang Lin knew that this was the small world of the gods that had entered the West Lake Dragon King. As soon as I arrived in front of the West Lake Dragon Palace, someone was already waiting. The dragon girl in white stood there quietly. When she saw Jiang Lin, she smiled slightly, with a hint of excitement in her eyes. "Jiang... Daoist friend, how come you have time to come to my West Lake Dragon Palace?" Ao Run bowed with a smile. She was a little surprised at Jiang Lin's sudden arrival, but other than that, she was more surprised. He should come to see me, right? Ao Run thought to himself.

"Meet the princess." Jiang Lin raised his hand to return the greeting, and without further delay, he went straight to the point and said, "I wonder if the old Dragon King is in the mansion. I have something important to ask you." Hearing this, Ao Run was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips, and seeing Jiang Lin's serious expression, he did not dare to delay, and said sideways: "My father is in the mansion, please come in, fellow Taoist." "Thank you." Jiang Lin nodded and followed Ao Run into the West Lake Dragon Palace. On the way, Ao Run secretly glanced at Jiang Lin beside him, and couldn't help but hesitated and said: "Daoyou, what is it? If it's not too important, I can do it for you." She felt somewhat unwilling for no reason. "This is a serious matter. To put it more seriously, it may concern the life and property of the old Dragon King." Jiang Lin frowned and spoke softly. Jiang Lin, immersed in thought, did not notice Ao Run's strange expression, but gave an answer in a very formal manner. Ao Run was stunned when he heard this, but he was very sensible and didn't ask any more questions, but quickened his pace. I walked around the main hall of the Dragon Palace and finally met the old Dragon King in a garden. The old Dragon King was taking a walk among the corals. As a water god, he could be said to be busy or not busy at the same time. Apart from the decree from Heaven to make rain, there is nothing else to do. But if you want to do this one thing, you have to be extremely serious. After all, there are lessons to be learned from the past... The old Dragon King was feeling bored when he suddenly saw his daughter out of the corner of his eye. He was about to speak when he saw Jiang Lin standing next to Ao Run. "Mage!" The old dragon king was stunned at first, then he quickly came forward and hurriedly bowed. "Master, I didn't even greet you. This is really rude." "Please don't blame me, Master." After that, he glared at Ao Run and scolded him, "Master, why don't you report to me when you come?" Of course the old Dragon King knew what his daughter was thinking. When he noticed Jiang Lin coming, he went to meet him without caring about anything. But doing so would make him, the Dragon King, appear disrespectful. Although it's no big deal to take the blame for my daughter, I still have to say what needs to be said. "You don't have to do this, Dragon King." Jiang Lin didn't waste any words and said directly: "I have an important matter to ask you. It is related to the North Pole decree and even the safety of the people of Hangzhou. Is there a quiet room here?" "what?" Even the old Dragon King was stunned by Jiang Lin's sudden words. Arctic Edict!

After hearing these words, the old Dragon King basically didn't listen to what followed. Although the Arctic Exorcism House had nothing to do with himself as the God of Water, the old Dragon King still couldn't help but panic when these words came out. But soon, the old Dragon King came to his senses. If he had really done something wrong that caused the North Pole Order to be sent down, Jiang Lin would never have the attitude he has now. The six-hole heavenly demon would have jumped out and tied him up long ago. Master Xiao Jiang just said...are the people of Hangzhou safe? "Master, follow me!" The old Dragon King came to his senses and did not dare to delay. He hurriedly took Jiang Lin through the garden to a quiet room. He also ordered Ao Run to guard the gate and not allow anyone to see him. Then the old Dragon King bowed to Jiang Lin. "Master, this is where the old dragon received the imperial decree from the Heavenly Court. It is not to be passed on to the six ears. Master, if you have any questions, the old dragon will tell you everything he knows." The old Dragon King sat down with Jiang Lin, inevitably feeling curious about what was going on. Jiang Lin explained the whole story and did not hide anything. "When the spirit of Wang Lingguan descended, the old Dragon King was watching the whole process, so naturally he had no suspicion." Jiang Lin said seriously: "Since the Taoist Wang mentioned the old Dragon King's name, then..." The old Dragon King also understood what Jiang Lin meant. He frowned and thought carefully. "Ghost fetus...King Song..." The old Dragon King digested the information from Jiang Lin bit by bit, and then raised his head. "If there is anything worth planning here, it's probably only incense." This was the only possibility the old Dragon King could think of. "The Heavenly Court has long had clear rules for accepting offerings from the common people." "Every sixty years, the incense is offered to the heavens, and after the earthly aura in the incense is purified by the pure and blessed immortal energy of heaven, part of it is returned to the local gods." "What is returned is called merit qi, and it is also the best nourishment for the earth gods to practice." The old Dragon King explained, and then said: "Calculating the time, in more than a year, it will be time to pay." "This should be the most valuable thing here at Old Dragon." Incense? Jiang Lin didn't say anything, just thought quietly. If it is incense, it actually makes sense. After all, this thing is really valuable. But Jiang Lin always felt that things would not be that simple. Incense...ghost fetus...demon soul...King Song... Each joint echoed in Jiang Lin's mind.

He looked up casually, and saw the shrine in the quiet room out of the corner of his eye, and then he was stunned. Above the shrine is a portrait of Xiayuan Water God. The water god, the water supply official, is of course. This was not the reason why Jiang Lin was stunned, but because he saw the various offerings on the shrine. Celebration… … (End of this chapter)
