?? The time for the banquet is almost here, and the attendants outside are still waiting.Gu Yan went to the City Lord's Mansion with the ancestor of the Zhao family after hanging the bell around his waist.

??However, after entering, Gu Yan discovered that not only the Zhao family was invited to the banquet, but also several major clans in Huaiyin City, and even the head of the Yan family who Gu Yan had eavesdropped on was also there.

?? He turned the bell outward to ensure that Yan Chi could see it.

?? Fu Hanling looked at this scene,? frowned slightly.

?? That bell... If he read it correctly, it is a magic weapon that only the head of the Yan family can have. How could Ah Yan have this?

?? This city is already a ghost town, ? Naturally, it cannot be given to him by the head of the Yan family.Then the only possibility is - it was given to him by Yan Chi.

??Fu Hanling paused slightly with his fingertips, and instantly became an eyesore at the bell.

The same is true for the Zhanyuan Sword in the Sword Mansion, but Fu Hanling cut off the connection with Zhan Yuan after he came in, and Zhan Yuan could only roar in the Sword Mansion.

??After he appeared, the attendants bent down, and someone called out in a low voice: "The city lord is here."

?? Gu Yan raised his head and saw the city lord from last night slowly appearing on the high seat.The lights in the city lord's mansion were brightly lit, which further complemented the person's demeanor.

?? "Everyone please rise."

?? This voice was cold,? After he finished speaking, he couldn't help coughing a few times.However, the city lord seemed to be sicker today, Gu Yan stood up and saluted with everyone, then thought, he looked around, and found something more interesting.

??The clansmen who came to the banquet seem to have a strange attitude towards the city lord.

?? Like fear, but also like jealousy, only the face of the ancestor of the Zhao family did not change.

?? Gu Yan noticed that he was back to normal now, and the ghost on the other side was gone.

?? He secretly paid attention to it. At this time, the banquet had already begun after the city lord took his seat.

?? Feast music sounded,? People around are chatting everywhere,? But there is no useful information.Gu Yan remembered Yan Chi's words, never touched the water here, even the wine.

??The ancestor of the Zhao family lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, but when Gu Yan raised his head, he found that the masked city lord was looking at him.

?? He frowned slightly, thinking that this person was going to ask him about his visit last night, but the city lord just nodded to him after he noticed it, and looked away again.

??He didn't hide his actions, and all the eyes of the people around him were focused on Gu Yan.

??The ancestor of the Zhao family was stunned for a moment, then he thought of something and gave him a satisfied look.

"You go to offer a toast to the city lord."

"Yes, Patriarch." Gu Yan didn't know what kind of medicine these people were selling in the gourd, so he temporarily brought the wine and offered it to the city lord.But fortunately, no one looked here anymore after noticing it just now.

?? Gu Yan walked up and found that the city lord was looking at the bell on his body.

?? Does he know?Just as he was frowning in his heart, the city lord looked away again.

?? "This dress looks good." Fu Hanling said.

?? The person in front of him is wearing the same robe as him.

?? Gu Yan raised his eyebrows, and the tone was indeed sent by him.It seems that the relationship between Zhao Patriarch and the city lord is unusual, otherwise the Zhao family would not be allowed to wear the clothes sent by the city lord.

?? "The city lord Miao Zan." He thought so, but still smiled and answered the words.

?? "The ancestor asked me to offer wine to the city lord."

?? Gu Yan handed over the wine glass, the two looked at each other and Fu Hanling still took the wine.

?? "The Zhao family has a good boy." He said this to the ancestor Zhao below.

?? Sure enough, the ancestor Zhao who brought Gu Yan here laughed.

??The expressions of the rest of the people were different, but the atmosphere at the banquet changed a bit, all because of the words of the city lord.

?? Gu Yan slightly squinted his eyes, just about to say something but was called back by Zhao Patriarch.

?? "Ah Yan, come back."

?? He lowered his expression and had no choice but to take back his steps, but before leaving, he looked back at the city lord.

?? What does the city lord mean?

?? Doubts surfaced in my heart, and Gu Yan couldn't get an answer for a while, so he could only go back temporarily.

?? Not surprisingly, it was back to daytime after the banquet.

?? There was no one in Huaiyin City. When Gu Yan came back, he thought of the ancestor of the Zhao family who had one body and two souls. He paused slightly, and suddenly an idea popped up in his heart.

?? He checked the genealogy before, and the son of the ancestor of the Zhao family was in his prime and had just broken through to the alchemy stage, and he still had a thousand years to live.However, he died shortly after the ancestor retreated, and the ancestor who had nearly lived a hundred years later gained a lifespan of a hundred years.

??Now he sees him and the ancestor live together again through the illusion-breaking technique. Could this continuation of life mean that the ancestor of the Zhao family continued the life of his son?

?? He thought of this and turned around to check a few secret rooms.

?? Sure enough, after the ancestors of the Zhao family, several people in the city who were near the end of their lifespans survived, and similarly, some people disappeared, and these people's lives were extended.

??As for why the dead people become half-souls, Gu Yan guessed that the ghost spring has side effects. He can make the user take away other people's lives, and naturally it can also make the person whose life has been taken away become a ghost.

??But Gu Yan frowned slightly when he guessed here. These are just inferences. He needs to observe other people again at night before he can draw a conclusion, to see if people who take ghost spring will become half-human, half-ghost.

?? And he still doesn't know what this ghost spring is?

?? Sounds like a kind of sorcery.

?? He hadn't heard of it, but maybe someone else knew.Gu Yan sent two sound transmission symbols to Ming Deng and Yu Baichen.Ming Deng has been saving the souls of the dead all year round, so he has a better understanding of these things, and Yu Baichen was born in Mingyue Valley in southern Xinjiang, which is also related to miscellaneous studies.

?? After Gu Yan sent out the sound transmission talisman, he quietly waited for the night to come.

?? On the other side, Ming Deng stopped after walking through three restricted areas.

??It is actually an extremely dangerous thing to supersede the souls of the dead in the restricted area. If you are not careful, you will be backlashed.When Ming Deng closed his eyes, there was a raging wind in his mind, full of resentment.

??The Buddha seal loomed on the back of his hand, and when he held the rosary, beads of sweat dripped from his forehead, and he was almost pulled in by the resentful soul.

?? Just when the bright light was in a trance for a moment, the sound transmission symbol on the waist lit up at some point.

??A voice came clearly: "Master Mingdeng, I am Gu Yan. I have something to ask you."

??The young man's familiar voice came out through the sound transmission talisman. He seemed to be so lazy forever, but Ming Deng suddenly woke up and was pulled out of the nightmare.

?? After he woke up with a start, blood spilled from his lips, and the hand holding the rosary was a little pale.

?? Just now he was surrounded by boundless blood, and the faces of the people around him were almost addicted to it. Fortunately, the sound transmission symbol lit up.

?? When Ming Deng heard Gu Yan's voice, the brows of his eyebrows unconsciously relaxed a little. After wiping off the blood, he brought the sound transmission amulet over, but frowned for a long time.

?? "A ghost spring capable of life and death? Flesh and bones?"

?? After sending out the sound transmission talisman, Gu Yan didn't know when he saw the light, so he had to suppress his thoughts for the time being.After searching around Huaiyin City, he found that night had finally come.

?? Gu Yan found that the days here are getting shorter and shorter, and the time of night is getting faster.It shows that the memory has gone back to an important place, and it is about to be the time when the city will change suddenly.

?? Gu Yan made preparations this time. After hiding Shen Guang in his sleeves at any time, the sky suddenly turned dark.

??The reappearance is still in Zhao's house, but this time the situation is a bit strange.

?? Gu Yan knelt on the ground, not only the ancestors of the Zhao family, but also other noble families in Huaiyin City.These people seem to be discussing something.

??He just paused in his heart, when he heard the ancestor of the Zhao family above say: "It seems that the city lord likes you very much."

?? "Ah Yan, are you willing to do your best for the family?"

?? Gu Yan remembered that the city lord had looked at him one more time last night, and felt a little bad in his heart.Sure enough, when he just had this premonition.

?? The ancestor of the Zhao family said: "The city lord has hidden the ghost spring. Only those close to him can know about it."

?? "Since you are part of the family, you should work for the family."

?? "Tomorrow I will send you to the City Lord's Mansion. You should find a way to please the City Lord as soon as possible. If you can get him to marry you and open the city sacrifice, you will be able to find the whereabouts of the Ghost Spring."

?? That half-human, half-ghost patriarch of the Zhao family talked so eloquently that Gu Yan almost thought he heard it wrong.

??These people really want to use beauty tricks?

??He took a deep breath and explained: "Old Ancestor, I am a man, and the city lord may not like it."

??But these people all thought that the ghost city owner wearing a mask just looked at him more than once to favor him. When Gu Yan refused, those people all looked like they were going to turn into a ghost and start killing him.

?? Gu Yan has never seen such an obsessive ghost.

??The sharp claws in his sleeves were about to move. Just as he was about to transform into Nine-Tails and confront these half-human, half-ghosts, he suddenly stopped, remembering that this task was called ghost marriage.

??Ghost marriage.

??The task will not be named casually. Could it be that this task is really related to the marriage of the city lord?

?? Thinking of the city lord who was wearing a mask and gave him clothes, Gu Yan suddenly changed his mind.

?? Zhao Patriarch was about to threaten him, but the next moment he saw the young man in red raised his head and said with a smile: "Since the Patriarch said so, then this disciple will not refuse."

?? Ancestor Zhao: ...?

??He wondered why this person suddenly changed his mind, but it's not important. The important thing is that someone can sneak into the city lord's mansion as an internal response.

?? After Gu Yan agreed, he glanced aside, and immediately a letter arrived at the city lord's mansion.

??Fu Hanling was taking a bath at this time. When the pigeon flew over, he opened his eyes, and the pigeon landed on the table.

??An envelope flew over from the table. Fu Hanling opened the envelope and looked at it. His expression was weird for a moment, and then he laughed again.

??This group of people is really obsessed with ghosts, but...send the little apprentice to play tricks on him??

?? Fu Hanling raised his eyebrows slightly, stood up and put on the mask again with interest.

??He wants to see how this beauty trick is used.
