Although I said I had put the matter aside for the time being, the bad breath still lingered in my heart. Although the five thousand fine was small, it was hard to swallow.
It was a good time to get together with Xu Xue, but suddenly such a disgusting thing happened. I felt a little irritable. The Zhao family and Zhou family were too arrogant and domineering.
But they have the right to be arrogant and domineering. Many elders in their family work in the Spiritual Adjustment Bureau. With their protection, how can the Spiritual Adjustment Bureau make things too difficult for them?
For example, Zhao Kun, as the head of the Zhao family, doesn't he also serve as the deputy director of the Spiritual Adjustment Bureau? In the Spiritual Adjustment Bureau, he can be said to have one hand covering the sky, so even if the children of the Zhao family do something outrageous, he will say more. Turn a blind eye, just don't go too far.
Thinking of this, I could only curse these bully bastards in my heart, but there was nothing I could do about it. After all, these family heads were all Qingling-level monsters. I couldn't afford to offend them, so I had to endure it.
"Don't be too depressed. Let me tell you a good thing. That Zhou Xiang will be sentenced severely this time!" Seeing that the dinner table was a little dull, Xu Xue took the initiative to change the topic and said, "Even if he is from the Zhou family , I can’t save him this time, let’s say twenty years at least, the focus may be life imprisonment or even the death penalty.”
The Xu family is extremely well-informed, and they will know about any disturbance immediately. Therefore, although Zhou Da was only arrested last night, Xu Xue had already learned about it.
Hearing this, we were all stunned. I mentioned Zhou Xiang's case when I talked to Lin Wei on the phone before coming back, so Lin Wei and Zhang Xinyu also knew about it.
"At least twenty years..." I nodded and said, "This sentence is quite reasonable... But, don't the Zhou family plan to intervene in this matter this time?"
Qi Xian told me that the Zhou family must protect Zhou Xiang. After all, they are still Zhou family members, so although Zhou Xiang's crime is serious, I'm afraid he won't be sentenced severely.
"Of course the Zhou family wants to intervene, but our Xu family also secretly made a stumbling block... Zhou Xiang won't let us do this, but we are still very willing to make the Zhou family lose face." Xu Xue said with a smile on her face. : "So this time the Zhou family suffered a loss."
I suddenly realized that although the Zhou family wanted to protect Zhou Xiang, the Xu family, which had always been at odds with the Zhou family, naturally could not let go of this opportunity, so Zhou Xiang still did not get much protection.
"Since this case involves ghosts, his case will not be pronounced by the court, but will be tried by the Bureau of Spiritual Investigation in three days. If you want to go, you have the right to go to the Law Enforcement Court to watch the entire trial process. After all, you It’s a party involved.”
The Law Enforcement Court is an institution established by the Bureau of Spiritual Investigation, specifically used to try prisoners. It is similar in nature to a court, except that the Law Enforcement Court only deals with cases related to ghosts.
"It's very satisfying!" I clapped my hands and said excitedly.
The news that Zhou Xiang was going to be severely sentenced made me feel a lot better. This son of a bitch killed several people, and he also wanted to kill Jia Jing. Even if he was killed, it would not be an exaggeration.
"Speaking of which, I didn't expect that you would meet Jia Jing when you went out to do a task." Xu Xue smiled and said with emotion: "Think about it carefully, after the high school entrance examination, apart from a few of us, we and the others I haven’t seen my classmates for half a year... I don’t know how they are doing now.”
After Xu Xue mentioned this, there was silence at the dinner table for a while, as everyone seemed to be recalling every bit of what happened in the past. Jiang Chen was silently looking out the window. He was not a student of No. 7 Middle School, so he couldn't get involved in our topic.
Zhang Hao, Xu Jing, Liang Yu, Jia Jing...the only few classmates left in junior high school. Since the high school entrance examination, there has been almost no contact. I don’t know how they have been during this time. After being silent for a while, I broke Shen Shen said: "After they go on winter vacation, let's find some time to get together."
I told them exactly what was on their mind, and they all agreed.
After the high school entrance examination, the students went their separate ways and went to different schools. Usually they have their own things to do at school, so it is difficult to get together. But I think we should be able to get everyone together during the winter vacation. Then we can reminisce about the past. The friendship between the junior high school and the Communist Party in times of adversity is not so easily destroyed by time.
"By the way, I have to tell you something." Seeing that the party had been decided, Xu Xue suddenly said: "I am here this time not only to get together with you, but I also bring some news. ..”
"What news?" Hearing this, we were all stunned.
"The latest information is that in five days, the Spiritual Adjustment Bureau will hold a hunting war in Lingshan. Only the top fifty on the Heavenly Ranking can participate." Xu Xue replied: "I got the news relatively early. It is estimated that these two The Tianling Bureau will release the news about the hunting war."
Hunting war?
This was a brand new term to me, and I had no impression of it. I turned around and looked around, and found that not only me, but everyone else was confused.
Even Jiang Chen had no idea about this. He frowned and asked, "Hunting war? What is this?"
"It's a long story." Xu Xue looked out the window, pointed at the continuous Lingshan Mountains in the distance, and said, "Do you know what is on the Lingshan Mountains?"
Before we could speak, Xu Xue answered: "In addition to the prison of the Spiritual Adjustment Bureau, we also raise a large group of ghost beasts, each with amazing strength. They are usually sealed within the barrier of Lingshan."
Ghost beasts are animals that can use ghost energy. They can cultivate ghost energy just like humans, but their cultivation speed is slower. However, they have one advantage, that is, their physical strength is much stronger than humans of the same level. Therefore, if If there is not much difference in strength, humans often cannot defeat ghost beasts.
In fact, Su Liuliu's pet dog Cola is a ghost beast, but Cola is no longer just a pet for us, but more of a companionship.
And these ghost beasts on Lingshan Mountain were deliberately raised by the wealthy Spiritual Adjustment Bureau. They are numerous and powerful. They seem to be used to guard the door. Once outsiders break in, they are the first line of defense.
However, judging from Xu Xue's meaning, this ghost beast seems to be related to hunting wars? Otherwise, she wouldn't suddenly mention ghost beasts here.
Seeing our confused faces, Xu Xue did not show off, but said straightforwardly: "The usual role of these ghost beasts is to guard the gate, but in the hunting war, their role is to be hunted by the contestants."
"For the contestants to hunt?" I asked in surprise: "It is not easy to cultivate ghost beasts, so why are they hunted?
"The ghost beasts you are talking about are tamed ghost beasts!" Xu Xue explained: "Because ghost beasts are very ferocious and extremely difficult to tame, they are difficult to cultivate. Tamed ghost beasts are precious. However, the Spiritual Adjustment Bureau raises These ghost beasts are not for taming, but for people to hunt and kill, so it is actually not difficult to cultivate these ghost beasts... throw them on the spiritual mountain and let them fend for themselves, and as time goes by It will grow naturally!"
I understand Xu Xue's explanation. These ghost beasts are originally meant for us to hunt, so naturally we don't need to spend a lot of effort to tame them. We can just let them grow on their own. There is a barrier anyway. , these ghost beasts can’t get out either.
"Hunting wars have two benefits. One is that they can temper people, because many members of the Spiritual Adjustment Bureau lack the experience of life and death fighting, and it is precisely because these ghost beasts have not been tamed that they are particularly special. It’s brutal, so it can temper people.”
Xu Xue smiled and said: "The second point is that the ghost crystals you get from killing ghost beasts belong to you. This is the biggest benefit. Therefore, if you participate in this hunting battle, you will It will be of great help to improve your strength.”
Ghost beasts are the same as ghosts. When their strength reaches a certain level, ghost crystals will be produced in their bodies, and they will also benefit themselves after being absorbed.
There should be a lot of spiritual beasts on this Lingshan Mountain. If I can kill a few late one-star ghost beasts, it will definitely be of great help to my improvement in strength. You know, late one-star ghost beasts Crystal is not that easy to get.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but lick my lips. Participating in this hunting battle will be of great benefit to my strength, so...
I have to qualify for this hunting battle in five days! Read the latest chapters of "Death Assignment Jizhong Literature" for free as soon as possible.
