Chapter 24

Jian Zhi’s words were so sinister that Jian Luzhong couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

He knew that Jian Zhi couldn’t see his expression, but he didn’t dare to say anything that would make Jian Zhi unhappy.

After all, his son now has superpowers and is different from before.

The child who used to be rounded and flattened by others is a thing of the past. Now Jian Zhi, who is sitting in the back seat, is a superpower who can overturn the car with just a raise of his hand, light it on fire and run away.

Now thinking about the experience at that dinner, Jian Luzhong still feels scared.

He calmed down and said, “The first thing is, don’t look directly into the eyes of the family master.”

“Huh?” Jian Zhi raised his eyebrows, quite surprised.

What’s the difference between not being able to look the head of the family in the eyes and talking about strange rules?

Jian Luzhong had no intention of explaining to him, but just continued: “The second thing is, don’t speak when the head of the family doesn’t ask you questions.”

Jian Zhi was silent for half a second and asked, “Is this just to be polite?”

Jian Luzhong shook his head: “This is for your life safety.”

Jian Zhi responded: “What about point 3?”

“Point 3…” At this point, Jian Luzhong fell silent.

He didn’t speak for a long time, wondering what he was thinking about.Jian Zhi raised his head, looked at him in the rearview mirror, and saw a trace of fear hidden in his eyes.

What is he afraid of?

Jian Zhi and Jian Luzhong are not familiar with each other.

In the original work, this person was a supporting character and had no description.

At the dinner, it was the first time that he and Jian Luzhong met. His impression of this man was that he was solemn and solemn, and he was a typical iron-blooded middle-aged man.

It was not an ordinary thing that could make him show such an expression.

“Tell me, what’s the third point?” Jian Zhi looked at him carefully, his voice was calm, drawing his attention back.

“The third point… no matter who asks you to go to the family study, don’t go.”

Jian Lu sighed heavily, as if he had put down a huge stone in his heart, and closed his eyes on the passenger seat.

This family is like a huge set of strange rules.

Countless questions flashed through Jian Zhi’s mind, and finally landed on the head of the family’s study.

The first two instructions were all directed at the head of the family. There was something wrong with the old man, and Jian Zhi guessed it from the heir system.

But the third warning turned out to be directed at one place.

There must be a ghost in this place.

I don’t know what important things are hidden, so I have to specifically say that I can’t go.

Jian Zhi pinched the button in his pocket and asked slowly, “What if I have to go?”

Jian Luzhong raised his eyes and asked, “Do you really want to die that much?”

“I may not die.” Jian Zhi said coolly.

The SUV drove along the main road for a while, then turned onto a viaduct. As we walked, the road became narrower and narrower, completely different from the viaducts we usually see.

There are more and more trees on both sides, and the leaves are dark in color.

Not long after, the SUV stopped in front of a forest.

The woods spread out along the end of the viaduct. The trunks of the trees are thick and dense, leaving almost no gaps between them, like a natural barrier.

The branches and leaves intertwined into a network above the head, blocking the skylight, leaving only scattered light spots falling on the ground.

The forest was filled with a damp smell, and the smell of rotting leaves and soil was heavy in the air, making a low rustling sound, as if something was watching in the dark.

The owner’s residence is a small castle deep in the forest.

The castle is surrounded by woods, and its outline looks cold and isolated in the thick shadows of the trees. The gray-white stone walls rise upwards. The walls have mottled traces of erosion over time, and the corners are covered with moss.

The tower is tall, with a spire protruding from the canopy of the trees. The slender window openings are like dark holes embedded in the stone wall. The outer walls of the castle are covered with relief patterns, which look similar to the Jian family’s family coat of arms, but are subtly different.

As soon as the SUV stopped at the gate of the castle, the brass door slowly opened.

The woman at the door was wearing a traditional British maid’s outfit. The dark skirt was pleated and hung from her calf. The apron was white and the lace was embroidered with gold thread.

On the lower left side of the apron, thin dark gold threads were embroidered into a familiar pattern, which was the family crest of the Jian family.

“Welcome, everyone,” the maid said in a clear voice, “The master of the house has been waiting for you for a long time.”

After saying that, she turned around and motioned for Jian Luzhong and Jian Zhi to follow.

The stairs spiral up from the lobby on the first floor. The handrails are covered with dark red leather, and the copper decorations are gathered into ancient patterns at the corners.Slender wall lamps hung on both sides. The frosted glass lampshades looked old. The light was suppressed very low, only enough to outline the relief patterns on the stone walls.

The corridor is long, narrow and straight, and the carpet is tightly paved. The footsteps are swallowed up in the thick velvet. The high windows on both sides are covered by thick curtains, with only a ray of cold light leaking through the gaps.

Jian Zhi passed by the corridor and subconsciously took a few more glances. Jian Luzhong was so frightened by his actions that he crossed his eyes and signaled him not to do this.

Jian Zhi curled his lips. After being in this world for so long, he finally saw something interesting.

The head of the family is in the reception room on the second floor. This is a reception room specially prepared for the heir candidates who come to the castle. It has the effect of isolating interference.

The interior space is not large, but it is extremely elegant. The dome is very low, and the dark wooden wall panels are embedded with reliefs of the Jian family’s coat of arms, giving it a mysterious atmosphere.

The fireplace was unlit, and the hearth was covered with clean white ash, with a strong scent of sandalwood floating around.

There was a long oval table in the center, reflecting the dim halo of the overhead light. The windows were covered by thick curtains, leaving only a vague outline. The lights in the whole room were dim, not like a reception room.

“Master, I brought Jian Zhi.”

Since entering the reception room, Jian Luzhong lowered his head and never raised his eyes for a moment, appearing extremely respectful.

“Yesterday, when we were having dinner, he awakened the family crest and reacted very strongly. ‘They’ recognized his identity as the heir. After receiving your revelation, I immediately brought him to see you.”

Jian Zhi followed him, the expression on his face was no different from usual. He was extremely calm, even more relaxed than usual.

In the slightly stagnant air, he felt a line of sight falling on him, looking at him from head to toe, as if trying to see through him.

The heavier that gaze became, the straighter Jian Zhi’s back became, standing silently in the dim room, like tough jade, which would not change no matter what happened.

Jian Luzhong had cold sweat on his forehead. He had never seen the head of the family care so much about anyone.

As soon as they met, they couldn’t stop staring.

This is not the first time that he has brought people to see the family head. Most of the people he brought before were glanced at by the family head, and for those who were not qualified enough, the family head did not even give him a look.

In the shadow behind the long table, a blurry shadow was hidden in the center of the curtain. If it weren’t for the sound of breathing there, Jian Zhi would have thought that the person sitting there was a dead person.

The dark golden curtain shook a few times, and the man inside finally spoke: “Jian Zhi, is that right?”

Jian Zhi nodded: “Yes.”

The voice was hoarse, as if it had been scratched by tree bark. After a long sound, he said: “Come here and let me take a look.”

Jian Zhi stood still, and Jian Luzhong winked at him crazily, asking him to hurry over.

He stood quietly for a while, and the eyes behind the curtain became more and more serious, as if they were examining why he didn’t move for a long time.

“What do you want to see?”

Jian Zhi took two steps forward and almost stood in front of the curtain, separated only by a long table from the head of the family.

“Master, should you come out and let me take a look?”

With Jian Lu’s deathly eyes, Jian Zhi said slowly, “It’s not very polite for you to be like this now.”

A drop of cold sweat slowly flowed down Jian Luzhong’s forehead. He felt like he couldn’t stand it anymore and had the urge to run away through the door.

What did he tell Jian Zhi before coming?

Jian Zhi had violated the three iron rules many times, and he actually asked the head of the family to come out from behind the curtain to show him?!

…could it be that the first time he met the head of the family, Jian Zhi became a sacrifice in the basement.

Jian Luzhong’s forehead was covered with cold sweat, his heart was beating wildly, and he stared at the heavy curtain.

Behind the curtain, the head of the family actually laughed. The vague and hoarse sound was like a sharp knife, pulling through the eardrum, leaving a piercing pain.

“…It seems that this time, it really succeeded.”

After a vague whisper, the heavy curtain suddenly lifted, and the owner of the house rushed out while laughing wildly. His whole body looked haggard, and his eyes looking at Jian Zhi had an abnormal eagerness.

“The old gods are about to die, and new gods must be established. We succeeded!! It’s not worth my years of research. The future belongs to our Jian family… We succeeded…”

Jian Zhi held his breath and watched the old man rushing over with a snap, as if he wanted to reach out and pull him.

He calmly took a step back and asked, “What succeeded?”

The old gods are dying and new gods are to be established.

It doesn’t sound like serious business.

What is this Jian family secretly doing?

“The spirit seduction ceremony is a success! Our Jian family has studied the secret method for generations. When it comes to my generation, we can even get a glimpse of the secrets of the sky. Once the new god comes, we will escape our fate and go to the paradise world…”

The head of the house couldn’t catch his sleeve, so he knelt down in front of him, raised his face, and murmured in a daze:

“The Holy Son who broke open the heavenly gate and descended into our family… finally appeared. You will take us away… right?”

“…”

Jian Zhi was confused by his series of operations, so he simply took a step back, sat down on the sofa in the reception room, clasped his hands in front of him, and assumed a conversational posture. Little did he know that his posture was even more mysterious to the head of the house and Jian Lu Zhong.

“Where to go?”

“Where to go? Divine revelation said that you will lead us to the land of Canaan flowing with milk and honey. There is no pollution and no pain. We can escape the cycle of fate and find happiness and peace.”

The old man recited the words in the ancient book devoutly, with a fanatical light shining in his eyes.

“We will be above the world and see all the truth, and nothing can restrain us anymore… As long as the spirit enchantment is successful, new gods will come among us…”

Jian Zhi looked at that enthusiastic face, and countless thoughts rushed through his mind in the flash of lightning.

“You guys go out first.”

He held down the sun and stabilized his spirit.

“Don’t bother me.”

If Jian Luzhong had heard Jian Zhi talking to the head of the family like this five minutes ago, he would have been so scared that he would have covered his mouth.

But now after listening to the head of the family’s blabbering words, his CPU was burned out. Jian Luzhong’s mind was filled with questions. Where was their solemn, all-powerful family head?What about the head of the family who can kill people invisibly with just a raise of his hand?

Who is this old man who knelt down to worship Jian Zhi?

What séance was he talking about?Does he mean that the spirit that their family will descend from generation to generation is actually Jian Zhi?

…What the hell happened to me?

Jian Luzhong was in a trance, and was pulled out by the owner of the house. Before leaving, the old man thoughtfully closed the door for Jian Zhi.

The maid waiting in the corridor exclaimed: “Master, why are you out?”

The head of the house waved his hand and stood at the door, leaning against the door frame, as if peeping at what was going on inside. Jian Lu Zhong had never seen him like this before, and for a moment he was even more frightened, feeling that Jian knew something unfathomable.

Jian Zhi stayed alone in the reception room and sat on the sofa for a few minutes.

Incense was burning in the reception room, and the smell of pine wood quickly calmed down the brain. Jian Zhi took a deep breath to calm down his heartbeat. After struggling for so long, he finally saw the hope of returning home.

What the old man said just now seems to be nonsense…

In fact, the nature of this world has been revealed.
