The reputation of Luli Academy is quite popular in Huainan Road and Jiangnan East and West Road. The academy disciples went to each room, woke up all the passengers, and summoned them to the inn lobby.
The hall seemed a bit crowded with so many people. Several Luli Academy students used their telekinesis to dismantle all the tables, chairs and benches placed in the hall into wooden boards.
Nails were then nailed to the windows, which not only freed up the space, but also sealed the inside and outside of the inn.
A Luli student reported: "There are twenty upper-class rooms, housing a total of forty-six passengers. There are thirty upper-class rooms, housing a total of seventy-seven tourists. There are forty middle-class rooms, a total of one passenger staying." One hundred and two people.”
Ji Xingwang nodded, "It's a lower-class room."
"Well,"
The waiter raised his hand and said, "We don't have lower-class rooms in our inn. We only have special upper-class, upper-class, and medium-class rooms."
"Why didn't you wait?"
Ji Xingwang was stunned for a moment, and then decided not to dwell on this unproductive problem, and turned to report the situation to Lu Qingya, "Chief, all 225 people in the inn are here."
"Roster! The roster is missing!"
Shopkeeper Liu's cry came from behind the counter. He rummaged around, stood up, and said with a panicked expression: "Someone stole the roster."
There was some slight commotion in the crowd, and many people cast suspicious eyes on the shopkeeper.
Shopkeeper Liu hurriedly pulled out a broken string from under the counter and explained: "Last autumn, in order to be wary of the subtleties of Zhou and Jing, the imperial court ordered private inns to register the names of passengers.
Our inn's roster is tied up with a rope and placed under the counter. You must have seen it when you stayed in the hotel. "
"Only people who sneak into the inn and want to hide their identity will steal the roster."
Ji Xingwang groaned, then turned to look at his disciple Guan Anyan, "Anyan, can you see anything?"
Guan Anyan is gifted with divination and can predict bad luck.
She closed her eyes and meditated carefully for a while, then hesitated and said: "I vaguely saw many corpses lying on the ground. The mountain chief was standing on the pile of corpses crying?"
Everyone turned to Lu Qingya, surprised and confused.
Lu Qingya is one of the strongest Zhuxiao magicians in the Yu Kingdom. Could it be that the ghost realm in front of him can make him helpless?
"Don't panic yet,"
A woman in a dress who was in her thirties and had a pretty face walked forward slowly and said gently: "Innate divination can predict many future scenarios, but it also has its limitations.
Remember last time? An Yan, you said you predicted that I would turn pale and be seriously injured, which frightened everyone as if they were facing an enemy, fearing that the Demon Cult would attack the academy.
The result was that I almost had a dystocia when I gave birth to Lin'er. "
"Well, Madam is right, there is such a thing."
Ji Xingwang nodded, and the memory of leading his disciples to set up defensive restrictions on Lushan Mountain and protect the mountain chief's wife came to mind.
"No matter what kind of monster it is, dad can beat it to pieces."
A childish voice sounded next to Lu Qingya. A five or six-year-old boy held Lu Qingya's hand and waved his little fist, "My father is invincible in the world!"
The boy's confident voice made the disciples of Luli Academy smile. The little junior brother is really cute.
Lu Qingya glanced at his lovely wife and young son beside him, and smiled and nodded.
Something is wrong.
Something is wrong.
Something is wrong.
Li Ang, who was standing in the corner of the lobby, looked at the warm Lu Qingya family, an old couple and a young couple, and couldn't help but cover his forehead.
Something is wrong.
Something must have gone wrong!
"Ang'er, are you okay?"
His mother Cui Yi called his nickname, walked forward, and worriedly held Li Ang's shoulders, "Are you having a headache again?"
"Let him lie on the ground for a while."
Father Li Hanquan said: "Cuiqiao, have you brought your pills?"
Before Chai Cuiqiao could answer, her mother replied, "Take it."
Chai's mother untied her package, took out a square iron box, poured out a pill from the iron box, and handed it to Li Hanquan.
Chai Cuiqiao stood there, staring blankly at her mother.
Mother?
Oh, by the way, when the Zhou Kingdom was in war, his parents fled to the Yu Kingdom with themselves and their younger siblings, and when they had no other choice, they sold themselves to the Li family.
Fortunately, Li Ang's family are good people and treat her as a daughter, and her parents returned to Zhenzhou to find themselves half a year later. After that, he simply stayed in the security hall and took care of the daily life of Li Ang's family.
"I originally thought that if Ang'er was admitted to the Academy and started to practice cultivation, his headache would be cured without any treatment, but I didn't expect that it would still be like this."
Cui Yi looked at Li Ang who turned pale with worry, and quietly wiped away his tears.
"Didn't the mountain chief say that it was caused by innate hexagrams? Just like Princess Guanghua's heart disease, it is difficult to cure it with medicine and stone."
Li Hanquan sighed: "Only by using the sea of Qi as little as possible can we suppress the condition. Come, take medicine."
He put the pill to his son's mouth,
Li Ang looked at his kind parents and felt a cold current rushing through his body. He grabbed the pill and crushed it hard.
Click.
The pills were crushed into powder, exuding a strong herbal scent.
Li Ang stretched out his hand to pluck the medicinal powder in his palm and smelled it.
Codonopsis pilosula, Atractylodes macrocephala, Angelica sinensis, Poria cocos, jujube, Zhigancao
They are all normal medicinal materials that nourish the spleen, nourish qi, and regulate qi and blood.
"Why is this kid causing trouble all of a sudden?"
Cui Yi complained, then turned to look at Chai Mu, "Jieyu, please bring me another medicine."
"Yes, ma'am."
Chai Mu took out the second pill from the iron box and handed it over.
On the other side of the lobby, everyone in Luli Academy was discussing countermeasures.
Ji Xingwang said: "Aliens must exist in the ghost realm created by it. As long as it is found and destroyed, the ghost realm can be lifted.
For now, it's just trapping us and not attacking yet. This is very suspicious. "
Lu Qingya's wife said: "We came back from the exchange at Songzhou Academy, took the train, and then randomly chose an inn to stay.
Bridges collapse, trains are blocked, rosters are stolen, and ghost realms are created.
Assuming that there is someone behind this series of events, he should take action soon. "
"Who dares to attack us? The mountain leader is here, could it be Zhao Ming?"
"It's hard to say. It's a pity that I didn't bring the spirit-sealing rope that can block the spiritual energy when I went out this time. Otherwise, I could have controlled all the passengers first and found out who was hiding something."
After hearing the conversation of everyone in Luli Academy, Jin Wusuan, who was allowed to sit on a chair because of his physical weakness, slightly raised his palms and said weakly: "Everyone, I don't have a soul sealing rope. Can I use stone shackles?"
Hearing Jin Wusuan's words, Ji Xingwang turned around, frowned and said hesitantly: "Shopkeeper Jin is wearing Du Shi shackles?"
"Sixth Officer. I borrowed it from a friend of the Zhenfu Department."
Jin Wusuan forced out a smile, "When you go out, you will always encounter some troubles, and you have to be on guard."
Dushi shackles, which are torture tools specially used for monks, can seal the sea of qi and suppress their cultivation.
A big businessman like Jin Wusuan, who is known as the richest man, is usually easily threatened or even kidnapped.
In addition to hiring guards, you will also purchase various equipment to protect yourself and your family.
