Chapter 263: Jiangnan · He Family

Lin Yuying didn't know Lin Keqing's cultivation level, but she felt that it was inappropriate for her to do such a dangerous thing after only a short period of practice. She gently advised, "Isn't it said that the other party is a cultivator? Why don't you let your father send someone to investigate first, and you can consider it later when the results are out

Lin Keqing shook his head and said, "There are cultivators involved. Unless you also use cultivators to investigate, you won't find anything. And I think tonight is a good opportunity

Because He Bai saw her and knew she saw him, maybe he would take action today.

Lin Yuying has a decisive temperament. At this moment, the old monk couldn't bear to see the mother's wife and said, "The eagle's wings have hardened, and it always has to fly on its own. She'll be fine

Yeah, the child has grown up and doesn't need her protection anymore. But Gu Mu is difficult to support after all, and the children still need her support. Lin Yuying regained her usual calmness and wisdom, tidied up her appearance, and said to Lin Keqing, "Wait a moment, I'll give you the topographic map of the He family

In fact, with Lin Keqing's current divine consciousness, ordinary courtyards are casually covered in the past, and nothing can escape. But she couldn't refuse the feeling that Lin Yuying wanted to share with her, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I just need it

Upon receiving the map, Lin Keqing transformed into a blue stream of light and flew towards the direction indicated on the map.

According to the information summarized by Xiao Teng, it is said that the foundation of the He family is not innocent, and they were able to rise and establish themselves in a short period of time because they seemed to have the ability to predict the future. Before the end of the day, they hoarded a large amount of materials. Many non renewable materials in the base are now monopolized by them.

Even if the Jiangnan base cannot do without the He family, the truly wealthy families still look down on them, calling them the nouveau riche in the family.

They also don't hide their nouveau riche aura. Not far from the aristocratic district where the Xiao family is located, they have a huge estate covering dozens of acres. This is the central area of the base, but not the central area of the former Nanzhou City. Their ability to occupy so much land shows that they really have the ability to predict.

Now there are tens of millions of people in the Jiangnan base, and most of the safe areas where houses can be built are crowded with people.

Poverty leads to self-reliance, while prosperity leads to benefiting the world. This is the code of conduct for many people. The end of the world is a great disaster for all mankind, and as the most abundant reserves of resources, each aristocratic family is likely to cause chaos if they do not generously contribute.

They will also be criticized for being rich and unkind, even the Xiao family has given up a part of their ancestral garden to accommodate more people.

But the He family completely ignored these things. The 20-30 acre estate was empty, with sparse street lights. Except for a few houses with dim lights, it was pitch black everywhere.

The estate of the He family has not been set up, but its walls are much higher than those of other families, reaching more than ten meters, like a city within a city.

Lin Keqing floated in easily.

The He Family Manor is also Chinese style, with pavilions and towers, flowers and trees supporting the Su, small bridges and flowing water, beautiful scenery. In such a cold season, there are still flowers blooming, obviously taken care of by supernatural beings.

Lin Keqing was not sure if there was anyone in the He family with a higher level of cultivation than her. She carefully walked through the garden all the way to the four in one mansion with three entrances inside and three exits outside, without encountering any obstacles. She carefully released her divine consciousness, and the entire mansion was projected into the sea of consciousness without any abnormalities.

Immediately upon thinking, she understood.

The fact that the Wen family is from Shushan is not a secret in the aristocratic circle. The Wen family is not far from here. If the He family wants to cover up, how can they leave any evidence in their own home

Lin Keqing saw He Xiaodie and wanted to directly capture her to avenge the calculated revenge four years ago, but he was afraid of scaring the snake with grass, so he had to plunder her.

Feeling unwilling to accept it, I took out a photo of Ye Mei. She wrote a bright red "as" on the back of the photo and threw it on the ground.

Ye Mei is definitely related to As, but she is not sure what the relationship is. It's better to ask for directions first and see if He Xiaodie has any clues here.

At this moment, she sensed He Bai.

The banquet had just ended, and he had only recently returned. He had been dressed in exquisite formal attire, but now he had changed into a tight black suit. He walked lightly along the walls of the estate for half an hour before arriving at an inconspicuous narrow corner door. He gently pushed open the black door with a copper ring embedded in the animal head and walked out.

Lin Keqing followed closely and only then did she realize that the corner door was open to the courtyard where she had sensed the presence of cultivators when she killed Li Daren last night.

The courtyard is not big, with only a small courtyard inside the tall walls. Three wooden houses are dotted among the lush bamboo forest, while the rest of the area is scattered with some withered trees. There are also several frozen bird corpses under the trees, and the ground is covered with leaves, which is very desolate, forming a sharp contrast with the lively bamboo forest.

Lin Keqing held her breath and merged with the air, because she recognized the bamboo forest and wooden house as treasures.

There was no response inside the house, but the bamboo forest surrounding the wooden house voluntarily gave way to a path, and He Bai walked in.

The bamboo forest closed again, and Lin Keqing couldn't see anything.

She felt that this person's cultivation was unfathomable and dared not act rashly.

Inside the wooden house.

He Bai is talking to an old man wearing a gray Taoist robe.

Uncle, it seems like someone has discovered me

The person he called his uncle was sitting cross legged on a cushion, holding a dustbrush in his hand. His hair was gray, thin and clean, with long eyebrows and whiskers, exuding a strong aura of bone and fairy. I didn't even open my eyes when I heard this and said, 'Who is this person?'

I haven't seen them before. I was attending a dinner party at the Xiao family when suddenly two people came. One was a monk, and the other was a young girl. I'm sorry, Bai Bai has poor eyesight and can't tell what kind of cultivation they have

The old man still didn't even lift his eyelids and said, "I know about this. You can do whatever you need to do

He Bai hesitated to speak.

He wanted to say that he seemed to know the young girl who was the protagonist of the notorious murder case, Xiao Wanrou, but he thought it was impossible. That girl had a high aura and profound cultivation. Even if Xiao Wanrou turned into a ghost after her death, she couldn't be the same person.

The old man came to the He family before the end of the world and said he helped them overcome the crisis. He has been living here and does not interact with other members of the family. However, he took a liking to himself and taught some basic spells. On the day of the end of the world, he awakened his innate divine power, the Eye of Psychic Communication. That's why he has a low cultivation level but can see Lin Keqing.

The old man saw him bowing his head and a hint of jealousy flashed through his eyes, saying, "Have you done everything I've told you

He Bai's hand trembled imperceptibly and he said in awe, "My father is organizing manpower and will soon be able to bring them over

The old man finally smiled and said, "Very good." With a sweep of his dust, a silver light flashed, and a palm sized dark golden pill bottle appeared in He Bai's hand.

You have great talent, practice hard

He Bai responded with a "yes" and bowed out of the wooden house until he came out of the corner door, then sat down in the snow. On such a cold day, layers of sweat came out of his face. He rested for a while before returning to the He residence step by step.

Lin Keqing looked at his back with a puzzled expression, wondering who he had met to be so scared

However, she has decided not to wade into the muddy waters of the He family for now, but to inform Wen Shengchang of the hidden cultivators here through a communication token.
