Qiu Weibai glanced at Mu Xiu, who was seriously "lusty", and finally said his intention.

"I would like to ask your family to help with a ritual ceremony in West City..."

Having said that, Qiu Wei's expression became slightly serious, "Not only did a lot of warlocks die this time, but also a lot of ghost envoys in our west city who were not able to withstand the temptation. The ghost king Zuo Lan and Xue Yue you saw at the banquet yesterday... They're gone."

Now not only the east city seems to be dead, but also the ghost kings and ordinary ghosts in the west city are not feeling well.

So Qiuwei remembered Song Yan's ability, and he came here personally to deal with the affairs of Xicheng.

Mu Xiu's face revealed a pensive look, and he didn't immediately agree.

At this time, the door of Minghua House was slowly pushed open, Song Yan walked out from inside, and came to the main hall where Mu Xiu and Qiu Wei were talking.

Mu Xiu immediately left Qiu Wei and went to greet him, "Why doesn't Yan Yan continue to sleep for a while, I'll just send him away."

What Mu Xiu said revealed that he did not intend to agree to Qiu Wei.

"I'm fine, I'll sleep tonight."

Song Yan stopped and let Mu Xiu gently hug him, and he whispered back.

He gently held Mu Xiu's hand, pulled him towards Qiu Wei who kept rolling his eyes, ignored his speechless look, and said what he wanted to say directly.

"I can promise you, but as a reward, you have to answer a few questions for me."

Qiu Wei looked at Song Yan's overly calm and clear eyes, and subconsciously, his whole ghost became a little vigilant.

He has always felt that Song Yan, who was able to subdue Mu Xiu, was not an easy one, and the facts were just as he saw, Song Yan was not only strong in strength, but also very intellect.

"You ask." After a moment of hesitation, Qiu Wei nodded in agreement.

"This time it's you, Aunt Hong, who kidnapped the old man. Did you plan it right? The news of the forbidden technique that the ghost in white spread to the outside world is also part of your plan."

Even the source of news about Zhou Lu and others was the white-clothed ghost in Mingyue Town, who passed it on through Lin Ruijin's master and apprentice.

It was only in the face of today's tragic reality that Song Yan slightly confirmed what was wrong in his heart all along.The purpose of him and Mu Xiu coming to Twilight City was not to ban magic, but to be a little more vigilant than other warlocks fighting for their heads.

"Honggu is for her Minghua domain, and you are for leaving Twilight City, so why did you abduct the old man?"

Twilight City has been closed to the outside world for a long time, and Honggu, who needs human flesh and soul to raise flowers, has almost no source of life extension.It makes sense to attract a large number of warlocks to grow flowers for her.

Qiuwei strayed into Twilight City for more than a hundred years, and at the time of the transition from prosperity to decline, he was afraid of disappearing in Twilight City, trying to use the hands of foreign warlocks to forcibly open the passage for ghosts and ghosts.

Both he and Honggu have good reasons, but as the owner of the central castle of Twilight City and the old man who is the guardian of order in Twilight City, what is his reason.

"The Gate of Forbidden Art does not exist. It is the gate of the realm that will appear at the beginning of July when the Yin Qi is at its heaviest. It is also the only way for you to leave Twilight City, right?"

Qiu Wei's eyes on Song Yan changed from shock to panic little by little, and he couldn't calm down anymore, showing a terrifying and ferocious look.

Song Yan basically didn't need Qiu Wei to answer these questions, he had already found the answer from Qiu Wei's defenseless expression when he was asked, but then, his eyes became colder by two points.

"You have been deceived... That gate has no way of leading to the outside world."

Song Yan is not sure what is beyond the gate, but it is absolutely impossible to be the real world that Qiu Wei has always hoped to return to.

Qiuwei's chest heaved violently, similar to the state where he was so angry that he couldn't breathe, but then, his whole ghost collapsed.

"Then I'm destined to disappear here? I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled!" When he said this, he probably agreed with Song Yan's judgment. He was fooled and made a wedding dress for someone else.

"I think... Twilight City originally existed not to trap you, but to suppress the evil here."

Song Yan sighed softly as he spoke, the return path of the ghosts was blocked, it must be that the ancestors stopped these ghost kings from leaving in order to prevent those evil things from entering the world to do evil.

Of course, it is impossible to say how innocent these ghost kings are. Most of the ghost kings who were exiled to Twilight City were stained with blood and human life. Letting them out is more of a disaster.

"Mo Xiu, let's go find the old man."

Song Yan turned his head to look at Mu Xiu, he held Mu Xiu's extended hand, and they turned back to Minghua House, and then walked outside.

Abducting the old man is the real mastermind behind the planning of this incident, and it is very important to clarify his purpose.

Song Yan and Mu Xiu took a few steps, and Qiu Wei immediately followed.

The ghost king also has the arrogance of a ghost king, and it's not his habit to be used as a spear.

Song Yan was wearing a thousand household clothes, with ghost whips and rattles hanging from his waist. He could not be said to be fully armed, but if he really faced danger, he was able to evade and fight back immediately.

It was already noon, and the East City was still desolate and lonely. There was no one walking around in sight, no wind, and no movement that could be heard. It was so quiet that it made one's heart tremble.

Mu Xiu and Qiu Wei had no footsteps, and Song Yan's habit was the same since he was a child. They passed through the market like the wind, without disturbing any people or ghosts.

The reddish-brown blood at the entrance of the tunnel in the stone castle spread all the way in, and the color of the blood became brighter as it went in.

Song Yan's footsteps quickened immediately, and he started to run quickly. Song Yan and Qiu Wei followed from left to right. Perhaps something unpredictable happened in the stone castle.

"This way."

Compared with Song Yan and Mu Xiu, Qiu Wei is more familiar with the stone castle, and he guides Song Yan Mu Xiu to the old man's residence.

Mu Xiu glanced at Qiu Wei, and a piece of talisman paper from Song Yan flew out, flying in the opposite direction that Qiu Wei directed.

Mu Xiu believed in Song Yan's judgment, and followed Song Yan's footsteps without any hesitation.

Qiu Wei scratched his head, but he could only bared his teeth and followed.He and Mu Xiu's ghost king Lingjue didn't find anything, so Song Yan's talisman must be useful?

In the center of the stone castle is a circular ink lake, through which the black water that crosses Twilight City passes. This lake is also very similar to the ink lake on the third floor of Mingyue Cave, or maybe they are connected to each other in the first place.

The blood that had been cut off suddenly reappeared and spread to the feet of the old man on the bench by the lake little by little.

Song Yan and Mu Xiu slowed down and continued to approach.

"coming……"

The old man whispered, and opened his eyes with some difficulty. He had been waiting for Song Yan and Mu Xiu to come over.

Song Yan and Mu Xiu walked to the old man's side, and his depleted appearance also fell into their eyes. The old man was waiting for them with a strong breath.

"Why?" Song Yan Ning asked, up to this moment he didn't understand the motive of abducting the old man.

As the guardian of the order of Twilight City, why did he plan such an event that is harmful to Twilight City.

Once the gate to another world is breached, he should know the consequences of the incident better than anyone else.

"Ahem...this world...how can there be so many reasons, cough..."

The abducted old man coughed up two mouthfuls of blood, but he didn't intend to answer Song Yan's doubts in his words. He waited for Song Yan to come over because he had something to tell him about his funeral.

"After I die, Stone Castle and Twilight City are yours, and the answer you want is also here."

As the old man said, he turned his head with difficulty, met Song Yan's gaze, and twitched the corners of his mouth, as if he was smiling. He whispered and asked, "Son, come closer."

"Yan Yan..."

Mu Xiu became vigilant, but saw Song Yan raised his eyes to look at him, stepped forward, and then slowly squatted beside the old man.

Song Yan didn't feel any threat from the abducted old man, and even the "children" made him inexplicably kind, as if he had been called like this before.

The old man raised his hand tremblingly, and pressed his palm on the center of Song Yan's eyebrows. A light black line emerged and then disappeared again. This is the mark belonging to the owner of the stone castle and the guardian of order in Twilight City.

The old man looked at Song Yan carefully for a moment, and then he turned his head to look at Mu Xiu who was always on guard.

Immediately, the focus of his eyes disappeared little by little, and a little phosphorescent light overflowed from his body. He died, and died with his soul scattered.

Song Yan slowly raised his hand, landed on the old man's eyes, stroked it down, and then took it away, the old man's eyes also closed.

Song Yan stared at the old man's chest and neck, which were obviously fatal wounds torn by sharp claws, and sighed softly. He stood up, and the expression on his face had returned to normal.

He turned around and took Mu Xiu's hand, looking at Qiu Wei.

"I promise you that the sacrifice will be held in Stone Fort tomorrow, and you can leave now."

He accepted the inheritance of the old man's imprint, and according to the rules of Twilight City, from this moment on, the stone castle is his, and the forces controlled by the old man's subordinates are also his.

Now he asks Qiuwei to leave his territory, there is nothing unreasonable about it.

Qiu Wei looked at Mu Xiu unwillingly, but saw Mu Xiu playing with Song Yan's fingers, he didn't look at him at all, and it was impossible to speak for him.

"Huh... just leave, but since you took over the old guy's position, you have to give me a reasonable explanation instead! Otherwise, I..." Before he finished speaking, Qiu Wei met Mu Xiuyouyou's eyes .

He snorted again, turned around and walked out of the central garden, and went back to his autumn palace through the tunnel entrance in the west city.

Song Yan's perception covered the entire Stone Fortress with the imprint between his eyebrows. After confirming that Qiu Wei had left, he squatted next to the old man and carefully checked the wounds of the old man and the wounds that might be left on him and Mu Xiu. clue.

Half an hour later, Song Yan picked up the old man's corpse, and he glanced at Mu Xiu, who was leading the way.

Enter a slightly remote stone building, and go all the way to the last stone room. The door opens, and there are hundreds of sarcophagi inside, some of which have been used and sealed, and some are vacant waiting for future generations to be buried.

There is no doubt that this is the burial place of the owners of the stone castle in the past.

Mu Xiu picked one at random and pushed it away, Song Yan put the abducted old man inside, and the sarcophagus door closed and sealed automatically.

Song Yan pasted a talisman on his body, and the blood and breath that belonged to the old man disappeared all over his body. He held Mu Xiu's hand, and they walked out of the sarcophagus burial room.

After winding around and walking for a while, they came to the main castle of Stone Fort, a seven-story building and the tallest house in Twilight City.This is also the place where the abducted old man lives daily.

Song Yan and Mu Xiu wandered through the rooms, and found that most of the rooms were vacant, and the old man did not live in any of them. His bed was just the recliner that was almost falling apart in the hall on the first floor.

"This room should have been lived in a long time ago..."

Song Yan and Mu Xiu went to a room on the top floor. It was clean and dust-free, and there were some decorations outside. It looked like someone lived there, but it just looked like it. No one had lived in this room for at least 50 years.

The aura of the former owner of the room did not remain at all, but judging from the cleanliness of the room, the old man cared a lot about it.

After leaving this room, Song Yan and Mu Xiu came to a huge stone ghost artifact in the living room on the seventh floor. There were seven grooves on the ghost artifact, only one of which was inlaid with gemstones, and the gemstone was full of cracks. Probably popped completely.

"This should be a ghost weapon to contact Honggu..."

Song Yan wasn't particularly sure, the abducted old man didn't give him the mark, and he and Mu Xiu had to figure everything out.

"Yan Yan, try it." It was also the first time that Mu Xiu saw such a big, heavy and broken ghost weapon.

The black mark between Song Yan's eyebrows emerged, and the scene of the second floor of Mingyue Cave slowly emerged on the smooth surface of the big stone, and a pretty woman in red came.

"Old guy, what are you doing? The Mingyue Cave almost collapsed last night! Huh?"

Hong Gu was puzzled again, she found that the looming figure on the stone wall did not seem to be the abductor of the old man, and she felt a little familiar.

"It's me and Mu Xiu, the abducted old man died."

Song Yan glanced at Mu Xiu, and he opened his mouth to answer Hong Gu's doubts. By the way, he also hoped that Hong Gu could help him and Mu Xiu solve the doubts.

"He gave you the mark of Stone Fort?"

Hong Gu's tone was even more surprised than before.

"Well, is there something wrong?" Song Yan followed up and asked.

Honggu is different from Qiuwei. Qiuwei is more likely to be seduced when he leaves, but Honggu is not. She lives in Mingyue Cave for a long time, but she is not trapped to death there. She wants blood and soul to raise flowers, but this is not the only way to go. .

Even Honggu has more contact with the kidnapped old man than Qiu Wei, and she is more likely to discover or perceive the motive of the kidnapped old man.

"The old guy is not the owner of the Stone Fort, but the servant who was brought to Twilight City by the previous owner of the Stone Fort. He does not control the mark, but only holds it. He should be waiting for his master to come back."

Hong Gu was a little bit embarrassed, she always thought that the kidnapped old man would continue to wait stubbornly, but she didn't want him to torment herself to death, and even gave the mark to Song Yan, and not simply let Song Yan hold it, but let Song Yan completely control it This is imprinted.

"No, you should have the blood of the Yin clan on your body, otherwise you can't completely control this mark."

Honggu's expression became more and more solemn. She had lived for too long, and many of her memories were blurred. She didn't remember anything until 10 minutes later, "I heard from the old ghost on the tenth floor that the first generation of Twilight City mayor Colored eyes."

So Song Yan is not just as simple as having the blood of the Yin family, he should be a rare special case of returning to his ancestors, and the blood of the Yin family in his body is extremely strong.

"There's nothing wrong... The old ghost on the tenth floor was a scholar before he was alive. He likes to record messy things. I heard him say it when he was drunk."

"Yin's..." Mu Xiu whispered this is definitely an ancient surname in the magician world.

"Mr. Mu, what do you think of?" Honggu looked at Mu Xiu. The Mu family was as old as the Yin family, but the Yin family's inheritance was almost cut off. There is a revival.

"It's nothing," Mu Xiu shook his head, even if he knew something, he couldn't tell Hong Gu.
