Chapter 0113 Panshiling’s inheritance from the ancestors, bad news spread again in Big Star City
The moment Jiang Yue stepped into the ancestral hall, a feeling of stepping into another layer of void surged through his heart.
When he reacted, the door of the lobby was ajar.
"Three dogs?" Jiang Yue was startled. The three dogs beside him did not follow him in.
As if they had crossed a threshold, the two brothers actually stepped into two different parallel worlds without actually walking together.
For a moment, Jiang Yue was shocked and confused.
While I was thinking about it, the shadow from before appeared in my field of vision again.
grandfather?
Jiang Yue was very sure it was his grandfather before, but now, he was a little unsure.
It was clear that his grandfather had passed away, which he remembered very deeply. Although he was young at the time, he saw his grandfather being laid to rest and being moved into the coffin.
Jiang Yue was deeply impressed by this scene.
So what is going on with the person in front of me?
"Grandpa?" Jiang Yue called again.
This figure is indeed grandpa. His voice, appearance, and appearance are exactly the same as before. There is no change at all. He is exactly as he remembers.
But this figure did not respond to Jiang Yue.
He walked up to Jiang Yue with a smile, stretched out his hand gently, and patted Jiang Yue's head lovingly twice.
This feeling and scene have the image of an immortal caressing my head, tying my hair and receiving immortality.
Jiang Yue felt a warm stream of heat pouring into his body.
Then, a strong sense of sleepiness surged through his body, and his upper and lower eyelids couldn't help but tremble.
Unknowingly, Jiang Yue fell into a deep sleep.
When Jiang Yueyou woke up, it was already bright outside. The clouds on Panshi Ridge had cleared and the fog had dispersed, but the morning light was still there.
Jiang Yue was in a daze, and he didn't come back to his senses for a while.
It seemed like only midnight had passed, but it seemed like I had experienced a big dream.
During this big dream, his grandfather was always by his side, whispering to him, admonishing him, teaching him carefully, and explaining his interests and dangers.
After waking up from a big dream, Jiang Yue obviously had a lot more information in his mind.
He originally lacked understanding of this strange world, but it became much clearer.
Everything happened in a dream, but it was truly engraved deep in his memory.
Sure enough, the weirdness didn't start from this moment.
In fact, weirdness has begun to penetrate this world a long time ago.
It's just that ordinary humans, with their numb perception, cannot detect such small changes.
Grandpa is not an ordinary person, and the Jiang family is not an ordinary family.
In his dream, Jiang Yue learned that the Jiang family had always been the guardians of the world. Although they seemed to be unknown, the villagers in the mountains actually shouldered heavy responsibilities.
There are many families like the Jiang family in the entire Da Zhang Kingdom.
Of course, Grandpa did not mention them in detail in the dream.
In this big dream, the main message that grandpa wants to convey to him is the history of changes in this weird world, and how to survive and deal with the weird pattern in the future.
It is obvious that even the extraordinary Jiang family is extremely hesitant in the face of the strange overall situation.
Because, where the world will go, no one can predict it, no one has experienced it, and no one can judge the final direction.
Of all fears, the fear of the unknown is the scariest.
In the dream, grandpa also mentioned the Jiang family’s ancestral hall.
Every plant, tree, brick and tile in the Jiang Family Ancestral Hall contains the hard work of the ancestors of the Jiang Family.
Within the ancestral hall, many magical formations have been arranged for protection. Once a critical moment is reached, the magical formations will be activated spontaneously when stimulated by the outside world.
Of course, these magic formations are all one-time use.
Every time it is consumed, it means that the ancestral temple's magic circle is reduced by one.
After all, before Weird invaded, the spiritual resources of the entire human world were pitifully small. The ancestors of the Jiang family also spent several generations of hard work to collect some spiritual objects and barely carved them in the ancestral hall.
These arrays.
And formations are precisely the things that consume the most spiritual energy.
Therefore, one can imagine how much effort the ancestors spent on carving these magic circles in an era when spiritual power was exhausted.
Jiang Yue felt somewhat ashamed. His family's wealth, which his ancestors had spent countless efforts on throughout the generations, was consumed a lot in just one night.
The mural of hundreds of birds facing the phoenix is missing a quarter.
What is lost is consumed.
Once consumed, it cannot be regenerated. Unless future generations can find spiritual objects, master the skills of carving magic circles, and re-carve magic circles.
Of course, all these skills were taught to Jiang Yue by his grandfather in his dream.
So, how to carve a magic circle, how to make runes, how to manipulate magic weapons, how to identify spiritual objects...
With skills like these, Jiang Yue is no longer a novice, but can be considered an expert.
After all, Jiang Yue's memory has fully absorbed the skills passed down from his ancestors.
Jiang Yue finally understood why his grandfather never taught him anything on purpose, but just what he heard and heard in daily life.
There is no need to deliberately teach these things.
What is needed is opportunity.
Once this opportunity matures and is triggered, everything will fall into place.
However, Jiang Yue was still curious, how did this magical dream come about?
Even Jiang Yue doubted, was this really a dream?
Shouldn't dreams be confusing? Why is this dream so coherent from beginning to end?
Why does grandpa keep dreaming?
Is the grandpa I saw last night a hallucination or reality?
Jiang Yue suddenly remembered that at the end of this dream, his grandfather gave him a gift.
Where are the gifts?
Jiang Yue suddenly woke up and looked around.
On the desk beside Jiang Yue, three things were quietly placed on it.
A pen, a medium-sized jade box, and the bullet ball that showed off its power before.
Grandpa in the dream once reminded me.
This pen is a rare spiritual object, capable of making runes and turning stones into gold.
Inside the jade box is a silver jade silkworm. When you open it, you see that the jade silkworm is motionless, as if it is in a deep sleep.
Grandpa once mentioned that once the jade silkworm wakes up and gets the food it needs, it will spit out a kind of crystal silk, which is tangible and invisible, but its tenacity is amazing.
Of course, the magical effect of this silk is not only its toughness. The most important thing is that the silk is used to form an invisible web, which is difficult for even ghosts to see through.
Once a ghost accidentally bumps into it, it will also be stuck to the silk, making it impossible to escape!
In other words, this silk is an excellent nemesis for dealing with ghosts.
This is indeed a rare good thing.
Jiang Yue secretly made up his mind to find the food it needs and extract the silk from the jade silkworm. With this thing, not only to catch ghosts, but also to defend against ghosts, it is definitely an excellent protective umbrella for home travel!
The third gift is the sword pill.
After an explosion, the spiritual energy given to Jianwan by ancestors has obviously been almost consumed. Therefore, it is difficult to count on Jianwan at present.
Unless Jiang Yue can renew it and re-inject spiritual energy.
Given the terrifying lethality of the sword pill, the amount of spiritual power it needs to absorb and inhale must be extremely staggering.
However, Jiang Yue felt that it was all worth it.
As the saying goes, you get what you pay for.
With such a powerful killing weapon, it is completely reasonable to eat a larger amount.
After all, it is his own blood.
Any one of these three gifts is a treasure to Jiang Yue.
After putting it away, Jiang Yue was about to stand up when he suddenly saw a paper crane lying quietly on the desk on the other side.
Under Jiang Yue's gaze, the paper crane slowly flapped its wings and began to fly.
With a flash of light, the paper crane gently turned a few times in the void, and a white light suddenly appeared.
In the white light, a figure emerged.
It's actually grandpa.
"Xiao Yue, it's family and state affairs and world affairs. I'm afraid it's hard to stay out of everything so that you can take care of yourself."
As the words fell, Grandpa's figure slowly faded into the void until it disappeared.
Jiang Yue reluctantly wanted to grab it, but wherever he reached out, there was only a residual speck of light.
After the light spot dissipated, the paper crane reappeared in the sky, but slowly spontaneously ignited and burned to ashes in an instant.
Jiang Yue felt disappointed.
He finally understood, whether it was last night or now.
The figure he saw was, after all, grandpa using his supernatural powers to place his thoughts and words on the paper crane. The paper crane was obviously made of runes, which was extraordinary.
Once the spiritual power is exhausted, the paper crane will spontaneously combust and disillusionment will immediately follow.
Jiang Yue had to admit that this hand was quite handsome.
People have passed away, but they can leave various messages through runes and leave their voices and smiles to future generations. This is much more real than the scenes captured by the camera.
Unfortunately, this is still a one-time consumable.
Jiang Yue stood in the lobby and bowed devoutly to the ancestral tablet a few more times.
After confirming that there was nothing unusual, he walked out of the lobby door.
When Jiang Yue's footsteps landed on the porch outside the threshold, he seemed to have suddenly returned to his original world.
Three dogs actually appeared on the porch.
The two brothers actually met in the corridor.
Sangou looked excited, as if he had been given a shot of chicken blood, and grabbed Jiang Yue's arm: "Second brother, where did you go all night?"
Jiang Yue looked confused, shouldn't I ask you this?
"Second brother, I clearly saw you walking into the lobby, why didn't I see you all night? Did you slip away through the back door? I can tell you, this time it's a big loss."
The three dogs were dancing with joy and foaming at the mouth.
Jiang Yue suddenly paused: "Wait! Sangou, you didn't say that you were in the lobby last night, right?"
"Nonsense! If I hadn't been in the lobby, how could I have seen my grandpa appear? Second brother, our grandpa is really an old god. He said that I was born with yin and yang eyes from my ancestors, and I was destined to be an enemy of the evil heretics. So,
Grandpa has taught me a lot of tricks!"
If Sangou hadn't talked so cheerfully, Jiang Yue would have almost doubted whether this guy was bragging.
But if Sangou was in the lobby last night, was Jiang Yue in a fake lobby last night?
There is obviously only one lobby in this ancestral temple.
However, Jiang Yue immediately thought that maybe this was the family's magic circle at work, deliberately separating them?
Is it so that the two brothers can each get their own opportunities?
Just as Jiang Yue was about to speak, the phone suddenly rang, and it was Luo Chu on the other end of the phone.
"Xiao Jiang, something happened!"
When I answered the phone, Luo Chu was very anxious.
Nothing happened in the middle of the night in the past, but now it's broad daylight, but something happened instead?
"Luo Chu, you broke Zhao Shouyin's egg, you won't let him escape, right?"
"Zhao Shouyin has been taken into custody. He cannot die, but he cannot escape either."
"How big of a deal can that be?" Jiang Yue disagreed. As long as Zhao Shouyin, the old Yin Coin, doesn't do anything bad, it won't be a big deal at the moment.
Luo Chu hesitated on the other end of the phone, seeming to be hesitating about something.
He, who had always acted vigorously and resolutely, was so hesitant. Jiang Yue couldn't help but have a bad feeling in his heart.
"Luo Chu, what is going on?"
"Xiao Jiang, I'm telling you the truth, you have to calm down." Luo Chu got vaccinated in advance.
"You know Yunshan Times Square, right? Something happened there last night! Your family was all there..."
Telling people such bad news early in the morning, even a person like Luo Chu, who has never been very worldly, felt a little guilty.
"What? What happened?" Family is Jiang Yue's restricted area!
As soon as Jiang Yue heard that it was about his family, he immediately lost his composure.
"Xiao Jiang, don't worry. I left a car outside the village entrance. You should know how to drive, right? Go back to Star City first. I will explain it to you slowly when I get back."
I really couldn't understand what I said on the phone.
Sangou also heard the content of the phone call and was more anxious than Jiang Yue.
"Second brother..."
"Let's go back to Star City first."
The gate of the ancestral hall was damaged, and they should have found a way to repair it. Firstly, they did not have the tools and materials on hand, and secondly, Star City was in dire need.
The two brothers had no choice but to leave and run outside Panshiling, where they found an automatic city SUV parked.
"boarding!"
Jiang Yue actually doesn't have a driver's license, but driving doesn't have much technical content.
Have you never eaten pork or seen a pig running?
With Jiang Yue's wisdom and operational ability, he became very skillful after driving a few hundred meters.
The car roared out of Panshi Ridge, exited the mountain road, and entered the Dajin Mountain Panshan Highway. The original landslide had been cleared long ago, and the road conditions were basically restored to their original state.
Jiang Yue was racing all the way.
At this time, I no longer care about speeding or not, breaking the rules or not.
It would be too embarrassing if a car belonging to the special department couldn't even deal with a few violations. What's more, Sangou was considered a member of the special department, and he was currently performing official duties. There was nothing wrong with violating a few rules.
After more than two hours of driving, Jiang Yue rushed back to Star City within two hours.
At the entrance of the base, Luo Chu had been waiting for a long time.
As soon as Jiang Yue got off the car, he asked anxiously: "Luo Chu, what's going on now?"
Despite his worries, Jiang Yue did not completely lose his bearings.
After all, Panshiling and his party, Jiang Yue gained a new understanding of the old Jiang family. Whether it is his sister-in-law or his eldest sister, they are all directly from the Jiang family.
Even if something happens, I believe that my sister-in-law and eldest sister will definitely not be the first to be unlucky.
Didn't my sister-in-law's family also escape from the evil Feng Shui formation in Yunxi Town, such a huge formation? Even Zhao Shouyin, an old Yin coin who can control ghosts, couldn't stop it.
Therefore, he still has confidence in his eldest sister and sister-in-law.
"Xiao Jiang, the situation is deteriorating very quickly. Not only our Star City, but the whole world is quickly falling into a strange abyss. The speed is faster than anyone imagined."
"The incident in Yunshan Times Square should have started last night. At first, no department noticed it. In the middle of the night, the police continued to receive calls saying that their family members went to Yunshan Times Square, and they were not there until midnight or early in the morning.
When I came back, I couldn’t get through the phone..."
"One or two police calls were nothing, just treat them as accidents. But in the second half of the night, such calls came one after another, and hundreds of them were received in one night... This is obviously weird."
I also returned to Star City in the middle of the night and almost early in the morning. As soon as I came back, all kinds of information kept coming to me.
After reading it, I realized something big had happened.
"According to peripheral surveillance, no one has left Yunshan Square since nine o'clock last night."
"After nine o'clock? So, it's normal before nine o'clock?"
"Yes, people were coming and going before nine o'clock, everything was normal."
"In a comprehensive commercial plaza like this, there usually won't be many customers after nine o'clock, right?"
"Yes, the peak period has definitely passed. But after nine o'clock, the flow of people will definitely not decrease. According to our guess, there must be at least several hundred people stranded inside."
"Then how are you sure my family is inside?"
Luo Chu smiled bitterly, he couldn't say that, because you two brothers are very special, so your family members are also the focus of our attention.
"Peripheral monitoring, our staff have compared everyone's entry and exit. The face recognition system can basically determine who has entered the square and who has not come out."
"Why can't you come out?"
"We can't find out the reason at the moment..." Luo Chu smiled bitterly, "Because it seems that our rescuers can't get in either."
"What does it mean to seem?"
"At present, we have sent several groups of personnel to go in to investigate, but they are either unable to get in, and they are wandering around in circles; a few of them went in, but soon lost contact."
Is there such a thing?
A commercial building, including the basement, only has a few floors. Although the area is relatively large, the layout of each floor is actually similar.
With this kind of layout, once the planning map is laid out and everything is clearly arranged, why can't we get in?
Ghost hitting the wall?
After so many experiences of ghosts breaking into walls, the special department will definitely not be helpless against ghosts breaking into walls.
Intuitively, Jiang Yue knew that this game was not easy.
If his own relatives were not involved, Jiang Yue would never want to get involved in this situation.
Unfortunately, there are no what-ifs in the world.
"Go and see the scene."
This was what Luo Chu was waiting for, and he personally opened the door for Jiang Yue.
"Let's go, get in the car."
To show his sincerity, Luo Chu closed the car door himself and acted as the driver for Jiang Yue Sangou.
A few hundred meters outside Yunshan Times Square has been put under martial law.
The population of the entire Star City is extremely large, but it is extremely difficult to prevent such an incident from spreading to hundreds of people.
Various hearsay rumors have long been spread among the people.
However, there is no official data from the public, and without various statistics, it is difficult to determine how many people were trapped in Yunshan Times Square.
Several departments from Star City have already arrived at the outskirts of Yunshan Times Square early.
Of course, in this kind of case, the leading authority is naturally still the special department, which is the department that will soon be renamed the Supernatural Action Bureau.
As soon as Luo Chu opened the car door, Lao Han walked over quickly not far away.
When Lao Han saw Jiang Yue and San Gou, he nodded towards them, but walked up to Luo Chu with a serious face.
"Luo Chu, Chief Yan is scolding me and asking to see you by name. You are finally here."
Luo Chu's poker face was gloomy, and he was obviously mentally prepared for Chief Yan's scolding.
Not far away, a group of respectable-looking people were surrounding a short, fat middle-aged man. Each of them had a cautious smile on their expressions, which perfectly set off the short, fat middle-aged man, like green leaves setting off red.
Flower-like.
The short, fat, middle-aged man with the hair on his head is very inhumane, and 70% to 80% of them have run away from home.
The remaining ones are also very naughty. They refuse to stay on the top of the head in a regular manner. Instead, they grow on both ends, leaving the bare part in the middle bitterly.
It can be seen that the middle-aged man spent a lot of effort and didn't know how much hairspray he used. He wanted to come to the center and comb the hair on both ends to cover the barren land in the middle. However, the cost was too little.
On the contrary, it looks extremely funny.
However, this does not affect the official authority of the middle-aged man at all.
"What on earth are you doing to get food? How can you get lost in such a commercial plaza in broad daylight? Where is Luo Teng? Isn't he always very capable? Why are all the people gone when the time comes? I usually take pictures of the table with my superiors.
Where has your courage gone?"
Obviously, this middle-aged man is the legendary superior, the scolding Chief Yan.
"Sir Yan, say Luo Teng, Luo Teng is here. The officer speaks as he says, and he does what he says!" An accompanying official next to him gave him a very timely flattery.
Luo Teng came up quickly and saluted the middle-aged man with a standard salute.
"Reporting to Commander Yan, Luo Teng, Director of the Third Operations Division of Star City, Supernatural Operations Bureau, is reporting to you."
The first level of officialdom crushes people to death.
He really couldn't be vague about official things.
"Do you still remember that you are the director of the Operations Bureau?" Chief Yan adjusted the gold-rimmed glasses in front of his eyes and glanced at Luo Chu with a salty look.
"yes."
"Sure enough, it is undisciplined! Look, everyone from the relevant fraternal departments has arrived early. As the director of the Operations Division, how is your ability to act? Where is your ability to execute? Do you still have discipline in your eyes?
Are there any superiors?"
Chief Yan poked his index finger and tapped Luo Chu's chest continuously.
This kind of finger-pointing and scolding method is extremely excessive in public.
"Sir, I have been performing official duties in Yunxi Town and Panshiling yesterday, and I just rushed back to Star City until dawn."
Although he knew that Chief Yan was targeting him, Luo Chu still couldn't help but explain what he needed.
"Dawn? Look at the time. How long has it been since dawn?"
It's already past eight-thirty now, and it's indeed two or three hours before dawn.
"Why don't you say anything? Where is the energy you used to yell at your superiors on the phone yesterday?"
Luo Chu finally understood, Genjie was here.
This Chief Yan advocated keeping all the replicators in Star City alive. Luo Chu, following Jiang Yue's suggestion, advocated killing all the replicators and burning their bodies on the spot.
For this reason, Luo Chu argued hard and even gored the bull on the phone.
Of course, Luo Chu did not explain these details to Jiang Yue in detail. He just tried to prevaricate them by saying that he was a senior official.
Jiang Yue is a smart man and understands what is going on.
He actually felt unspeakably disgusted with this kind of occasion. If it wasn't for Luo Chu's face, he wouldn't even want to come.
What Chief Yan?
He controls heaven and earth, but he really can't control Jiang Yue.
"Second brother, who is this person? He has such great authority, but he doesn't know how capable he is." When San Gou saw Luo Chu being dissed like this, he instinctively felt a little resentful.
"I don't know." Jiang Yue shook his head, "Let's go over and have a look."
Although the two brothers were separated by a distance, their voices were not deliberately suppressed when they asked and answered questions. It seemed that they were not directed at anyone, but with so many high-minded people present, it was obvious that they were not concerned about face.
