Chapter 553 Another Acquaintance
He felt that he was being too suspicious. "The forbidden area has layers of security guards. A wandering immortal can't get in. It seems that I am too nervous."
After convincing himself, the head of the Jiang family quickened his pace.
Jiang Ci looked around. It seemed like a big cave. The stalactites in the cave were as white and pure as snow. They looked like cascading waterfalls or floating clouds.
There are actually quite a few hanging coffins hanging on the cliffs.
It seems that this place is not only a forbidden area, but also the ancestral tomb of the Jiang clan.
Hanging coffin burial, the dead will never touch the ground, immortal for thousands of years.
The Jiang people are quite interesting.
Jiang Ci fixed his eyes on the head of the Jiang family, only to see him walking straight in and stopping only when he reached the end.
"There is a wandering immortal who calls himself Qingfeng in my house and wants to break into the forbidden area. Please tell me what I should do?"
The head of the Jiang family took three incense sticks, lit them, knelt down respectfully and kowtowed. After he finished worshipping, he stood up and inserted the incense into the incense burner.
Jiang Ci couldn't see clearly who the statue hanging on the wall of the cave was, so he had to move closer.
When her eyes fell on the person on the statue, her face suddenly changed and she almost shouted out a name.
The head of the Jiang family waited respectfully for a long time, but the fairy in the painting did not give him any inspiration.
"Could it be that the immortal is out?" He was puzzled and had to write the information he wanted to report on the talisman paper, light it, and send it to the immortal land.
After finishing, the head of the Jiang family left with a sense of relief, but did not notice a dark shadow in the corner.
After he left, the black shadow gradually revealed its figure, and it was Jiang Ci.
Jiang Ci came to the altar, looked at the portrait hanging on the cave wall, and shouted in shock: "Senior Brother Taihang?!"
The person in the portrait was clearly her senior brother. When she first met him as a child, he was wearing a jade pendant with a mountain totem around his waist.
The person in the portrait is also wearing the same jade pendant with a mountain totem!
"Didn't Master say you were dead? How did you become a Jiang Clan immortal?!"
At this moment, Jiang Ci was shocked.
Looking at the ashes in the incense burner, one can imagine that the Jiang clan has been offering incense to him for a long time.
“Senior Brother!”
Jiang Ci slammed the table.
The tribute fruits on the table were shaken to the ground.
The fairy in the painting showed no reaction.
Jiang Ci couldn't figure it out and walked back and forth in front of the portrait.
"Master said you were dead, but you returned to the immortal land and became the immortal who protected the Jiang clan. Brother Taihang, what on earth are you doing?"
Seeing no response, Jiang Ci grabbed a handful of incense, lit it, and put it in front of the portrait.
"I know that you gods can hear the prayers of believers, so you can naturally hear my voice as well."
"If you don't show up again, I will burn your portrait, overturn your tribute, and make sure you can never enjoy incense again!"
She didn't just threaten verbally, she directly put the burning incense stick on the portrait's leg.
A hole was immediately burned in the portrait.
No matter how she threatened, Taihang never responded.
"Did you really go out for a walk?"
Jiang Ci's face turned black. He kicked over the altar, threw away the incense and left.
As soon as she leaves.
An immortal dressed in green jumped out of the painting and slapped the sparks on his legs.
"This girl is still so irritable, it's burning me to death."
When Taihang saw the tribute fruits scattered all over the ground, he picked them up with a curse, chewed them and said, "God will strike you down if you waste food."
"Zhenxian——"
Suddenly, a light shout came from behind.
Taihang realized something was wrong and wanted to escape, but he was a step too late.
A talisman flew over and hit him in the chest.
Taihang was stunned when he saw Jiang Ci jumping out of a hanging coffin.
This girl has become very smart. She actually knows how to use the extremely cold air in the hanging coffin to cover up her own breath.
"Junior sister, I——"
Jiang Ci looked at his shadow and said faintly, "Aren't you pretending to be dumb? Keep pretending."
Taihang smiled awkwardly: "I'm not pretending. I just came back from a walk and heard someone from the lower world calling me, so I showed up."
"Junior sister, we haven't seen each other for thousands of years. Can you take off the Immortal Suppression Talisman first?"
"Let's talk it over."
Jiang Ci said with a fake smile: "I just want to talk to you properly, who told you to pretend you're not at home."
Taihang coughed lightly, "Then you say."
"I've said everything I need to say. Just give me an explanation." Jiang Ci snatched the tribute fruit from his hand and rubbed the dust off his clothes before eating it.
Taihang smiled and said, "If you want to ask me why I am here, it's very simple. I am an immortal, and I also need the offerings and incense of the human race."
Jiang Ci narrowed his eyes slightly, "Oh? Really?"
"Yes, you don't know that life in the Immortal Land is very difficult now. It is the end of the Dharma era, opportunities are exhausted, and all the immortals are fighting for luck."
"If I want to survive in the Immortal Land, I can only do so by obtaining offerings from the humans in the lower realms."
Taihang played the victim, "Junior Sister, do you know what kind of life I lived in the fairyland? It was a life of misery!"
Jiang Ci said calmly, "Blow, keep blowing."
Taihang: “…”
Ahem, my little junior sister has grown up and is not easy to deceive anymore.
"Did your master arrange for you to go?" Jiang Ci hit the nail on the head.
Taihang still wanted to pretend, but her eyes were too sharp, dark and heavy, as if she could see through his thoughts.
"Okay, I'll tell you the truth. It was arranged by Master. He was afraid that I would have a miserable life in the fairyland, so he made me the fairy behind the Jiang clan, so that I could have an easier life."
Jiang Ci: “…”
She picked up the incense and walked around Taihang.
Taihang's pupils shrank sharply, "Don't burn it, I said!"
"explain."
"Actually, the reason why I became the guardian fairy of the Jiang clan was because of one person."
"Jiang Wan?"
"You know her?" Taihang was surprised. "Yes, it's her."
"Master said that she was once a great immortal in the immortal land, and after her death, she was reincarnated in the mortal world. What I have to do is to protect her until she awakens and returns to the immortal land."
Jiang Ci frowned, "There is one thing I'm curious about."
"Yes, you say, Junior Sister."
"I don't know whether Jiang Wan is the reincarnation of the immortal, but the Jiang clan has been intending to snatch my amazing luck from me and give it to Jiang Wan from the beginning. Why is that?"
"Don't tell me I don't know. As far as I know, the mastermind behind this incident is the immortal family behind the Jiang clan."
At this point, Jiang Ci gritted his teeth in anger.
Who among my family members understands?
The person behind the Jiang clan that she had been investigating for so long turned out to be her shameless senior brother.
She knew her senior brother's character and knew that he would never hurt her.
But that's what happened.
Jiang Ci now really wants to know whether his senior brother knew that Jiang Ci was his junior sister and still deliberately attacked her.
That's true.
Well, this senior brother is bound to get a beating!
Taihang shook his head and said seriously, "Junior Sister, think about it from another angle. The amazing luck should have belonged to Jiang Wan. It was because something went wrong when she was reincarnated that the amazing luck came to you. If you return the amazing luck to her, she might be able to awaken immediately."
