Chapter 147 Map Hideout

Chapter 147 Map Hideout

"Just kill us! Since you know the Zhou family so well, you should know that the Zhou family is the gravekeeper of the Nine-Life Immortal.

How many generations have my ancestors passed down this tradition? All of them are loyal to the end. Even if Zhou dies, he will never betray his master."

Tian Lin couldn't help but frown after hearing what he said, "For a dead person, for some bullshit loyalty, you don't even want your own wife and children?"

Zhou Qing did not answer Tian Lin, but looked at Zhou Qin in Tian Lin's arms with a wry smile:
"Zhou Qing is so unkind to you. He didn't let you live a good life. Instead, he made you suffer the humiliation of this rapist."

Zhou Qin also cried. She gritted her teeth and said, "Brother Qing, if I lose my innocence, I will never live in disgrace in this world."

Zhou Qing suddenly jumped up and stabbed Tian Lin with his sword with all his strength.

Tian Lin did not dodge or evade, and the sword that was stabbing at him stopped in front of him and could not move forward any further.

Zhou Qing was shocked, not knowing why he had lost control of the sword in his hand.

Tian Lin sighed, broke the sword in Zhou Qing's hand with one finger, and then pushed Zhou Qinshi in his arms back to Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing was a little surprised, and heard Tian Lin say: "I know your map is hidden in the Zhou family. Let me go to your Zhou family house to look for it first. If I can't find the map, I will come to you again!"

While Tian Lin was speaking, his eyes were looking at Zhou Qinshi.

It was Zhou Qinshi in another illusion who told Tian Lin that the tomb map was hidden in the Zhou family. However, the ancestor of the Tong family suddenly "visited" at that time, and Tian Lin had no time to ask in detail, so he didn't know where the map was hidden in the Zhou family.

Furthermore, he was not sure whether Zhou Qin had lied to him.

"Brother Qing, are you Zhou family really the gravekeepers? Is the map really hidden in the Zhou family?"

Tian Lin disappeared, and Zhou Qin looked at Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing shook his head, looked around warily and said, "It's not advisable to stay here for long. Let's leave first."

The horse and the coachman were turned into dust, so the couple had no choice but to leave on foot.

Tian Lin, who had already left, quietly followed the couple and finally saw them settle down in the thatched cottage next to Taoist Yun.

Seeing that nothing unusual happened in the following period of time except that Taoist Yun treated Zhou Qing, Tian Lin couldn't help but frown.

"That map should not be in the Zhou family. Or maybe Zhou Qinshi put the map in the Zhou family later?"

Tian Lin guessed that if the map was in Zhou's house, Zhou Qing must be very anxious, afraid that he would find the tomb map in Zhou's house.

But now judging from Zhou Qing's performance, Zhou Qing is not worried about going to Zhou's house to find the map.

That afternoon, he quietly entered the room while Zhou Qing was taking a medicinal bath.

But Tian Lin couldn't find the whereabouts of the map in Zhou Qing's clothes or in the house.

He gritted his teeth, turned around and headed directly for Pingyang County while it was still early.

The Zhou family comes from a Qi-refining family, and every street in the county town is inhabited by members of the Zhou family.

Tian Lin's target was the Zhou family's old house, which had already been divided up by other aristocratic families in Pingyang County, so the house was full of people living in it.

In the backyard, Tian Lin was burrowing underground when suddenly a huge force came down from the ground.

The huge force caused Tian Lin to vomit blood and he almost fainted on the spot.

He heard the sound of digging the earth above him. Before he could continue to use the earth escape technique to escape, a big hand lifted him out of the earth.

The big hand threw Tian Lin to the ground, and the owner of the big hand squatted in front of Tian Lin, looked at Tian Lin curiously and asked:

"Gopher? Whose kid has learned the earth escape technique and is sneaking into someone's backyard? Doesn't he know there are women here?"

Tian Lin couldn't tell the old man's cultivation level, but his heart tightened when he glanced at the other old man sitting on the stone bench behind him.

The old man on the stone bench glanced at Tian Lin and asked, "Young man, have you seen me? Or have you done anything to offend me?"

Tian Lin said nothing and glanced at Tong Yao who was standing next to the old man.

Tong Yao was still alive and well at this time, so logically, he had no grudge against the ancestor of the Tong family.

Tian Lin felt a little bitter. He had clearly heard from outside that there were not many people here, but he didn't know that the information he got from outside was wrong.

"The younger generation felt scared because they recognized Senior Tong's identity."

After Tian Lin finished speaking, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, stood up, and saluted the old man with big hands and the ancestor of the Tong family, saying:
"I beg you two to forgive me. I just heard that the Zhou family's map was hidden here, so I came here to look for it. I have no intention of offending you two."

He said it calmly because he knew that this was an illusion and the two people in front of him were fake.

Similarly, the reason why he spoke so frankly was because he knew that the two people in front of him could really kill him, so he didn't dare to lie.

"Zhou family's map?"

The old man with big hands asked curiously, "The Zhou family has fallen to such a state, what map do you still treasure so much?"

Tian Lin said: "As far as I know, the ancestors of the Zhou family were the tomb keepers of the Nine-Life Immortal. The map of the Nine-Life Immortal's tomb is in the hands of the Zhou family."

The Tong family ancestor who was sitting on the stone bench stood up and couldn't help asking, "Where did you, a junior, get this news?"

Tian Lin lied without hesitation: "I know a man who sells Huahualang in Yulong Continent. He calls himself Master Zhou. He is from the Zhou family, but since he is not a direct descendant, he can only go out to sea to make a living. I got all the news from him." Since it was related to the tomb of Jiu Ming Zhenren, the two foundation-building masters became interested.

They were no longer in a hurry to take Tian Lin's life. The Tong family's ancestor said to the big-handed old man:
"Let's investigate this matter thoroughly. If what he said is true, we may have to look for Zhou Qing."

The old man with big hands nodded. Not long after he left, when he came back, he had Master Zhou in his hands.

Immortal Master Zhou cried as soon as he landed, "I have never told anyone about the Zhou family map, and I don't know where the tomb map is hidden. I'm afraid I have to ask Zhou Qing about this."

After he finished speaking, he glared at Tian Lin fiercely: "Old Huang, why did you hurt me? When did I ever tell you about the Zhou family map?"

Tian Lin said: "When we first came here from Yulong Continent by boat, you talked in your sleep, and I overheard it by accident."

Immortal Master Zhou was stunned for a moment, thought for a while and denied it flatly: "I was only at the first level of Qi Refining at that time, how could I talk in my sleep?"

The ancestor of the Tong family didn't care whether the two men were lying or not. He was only sure that the tomb map that Tian Lin mentioned was true, so he sent someone directly to find Zhou Qing.

At this time, Tong Yao walked up to the Tong family's ancestor and said, "Grandpa, since we have broken off the engagement with the Zhou family, we should not have any more ideas about the Zhou family's map.

Even if Zhou Qing and I hadn't broken off our engagement, what's so special about the Zhou family's map?"

The ancestor of the Tong family attaches great importance to this granddaughter, not only because she is his legitimate granddaughter, but also because she is now a disciple of the Shuiyun Sect.

Because Tong Yao's vague accusation did not make him angry, he patiently explained:

“Master Jiu Ming is not an ordinary Jin Dan cultivator. He has lived for nine lifetimes and accumulated wealth for nine lifetimes. Even a Yuan Ying cultivator would find it hard not to be tempted by his wealth.

Furthermore, the origin of the Nine-turn Soul-Resurrection Technique practiced by the Nine-life Immortal is extremely mysterious, and it is rumored to be an immortal technique that can make one immortal. Yao'er, if you can obtain this immortal technique after entering the Shuiyun Sect, it will be just a matter of time before you become an inner sect disciple."

Tong Yao wanted to say something, but the Tong family's ancestor would not allow any doubt on this matter.

He turned around and said to the maid next to him, "Have someone dig three feet deep in the Zhou family's ground to see if there is anything strange."

A group of people started using shovels, and the entire Zhou family's old house instantly became lively.

I don't know how long it took, but finally someone came to report that Zhou Qing had been "invited" over.

At this time, Zhou Qing was already dying, and also brought in were Zhou Qinshi and the infant Zhou Shoufan.

Zhou Qing saw Tian Lin, but his hateful eyes were fixed on Zhou Xianren: "It is you, and only you, a traitor of the Zhou family, would betray the secrets of the Zhou family."

Immortal Zhou was furious and said, "Don't mention that I didn't betray this secret. Even if I did, so what? How many advantages have I taken from your Zhou family since I was born? Just because I am not a direct descendant, do I have to be inferior to you?"

"enough!"

The Tong family's ancestor scolded, and Immortal Zhou didn't dare to say anything else.

The old man with big hands came over, looked at Zhou Qing with a smile and said, "Xiao Zhou, I have a deep friendship with your grandfather. Hand over the map of your family, and I will protect you."

Zhou Qing spat and said, "When you occupied my Shuiling Field, why didn't you think about our relationship with my Zhou family? Yang, just kill me. I won't tell you about the map."

The old man's face darkened. He grabbed Zhou Qinshi next to him and then grabbed Zhou Shoufan who was in Zhou Qinshi's arms.

Seeing her newborn son die, Zhou Qin went crazy and grabbed the old man's face.

The old man twisted Zhou Qin's hand and pulled her in front of Zhou Qing by her hair.
"Your son is dead. Do you want me and your wife to give birth to another one for you?"

Zhou Qing's eyes instantly turned red, and his injuries suddenly flared up and he vomited blood.

The Tong family's ancestor said at this time: "Forget it, Old Yang, why do you have to bully women and children?"

The old man with big hands grumbled and wanted to say something, but when he glanced at Tong Yao with a cold look on her face, the words were cut short.

"This kid from the Zhou family is obviously a tough guy. When he was in the Dao Sect, he insisted on being tough, so he was kicked out by the Dao Sect.

If I don't threaten him with his family, will he give in? "

The Tong family ancestor said: "After all, we have known his grandfather for many years, so it is not good to bully his descendants."

"His grandfather hasn't even established his foundation yet, how can he be my friend?"

After the old man with big hands finished speaking, he turned around and left the courtyard.

Although he was gone, his spies were still in the yard.

The Tong family patriarch stood up and walked to Zhou Qing. He suddenly stretched out his hand and took the wooden sign from Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing, who was sneering, suddenly changed his expression after the Tong family ancestor took the sign. The Tong family ancestor also laughed at this time: "So that's how it is. I know where the map is hidden."

Tian Lin, who was standing by, touched his storage bag, feeling somewhat puzzled.

According to the Tong family's ancestor, the map seemed to be hidden in the wooden sign.

But Tian Lin studied it carefully and found that the wooden plaque, which looked like wood but was not, could not be penetrated by spiritual consciousness, and true Qi could not be passed in either.

He also tried to drip blood on it to make it recognize its master, but found that dripping blood was of no use.

Could it be that I have to cut him in half with a flying sword in order to get the map out of him?
But this wooden sign is the key to the tomb. If you cut the wooden sign, you can't enter the tomb. What's the use of having a map?
